Getting all dressed up for Outdoor Wednesday!

It's Outdoor Wednesday, hosted by Susan at http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com. I didn't expect to have a post today, but I found a surprise when I went by my new house after work Tuesday.

My little house has got her new outfit on, the siding was installed today! Many finishing touches remain to be done in the next 17 days before settlement! This is not the final version of how the house will look, the white trim will be painted to match the siding and the shutters and door are going to be a dark red color.

They also filled in the utility trenches, but left a very large dirt pile in front of the garage. Right now, I'm looking forward to seeing them put the deck on out back. I'm all set to move in on the first day of spring, and I'm hoping for dry weather!

I had a dream we moved in! I was with Dani in her room and she's like, uh oh, pee on the carpet. And I'm like, we just moved, what peed on the carpet? And she looked at me like I was crazy before explaining calmly that the camels were to blame.

Of course.

ANYWAY I think that means I'm excited.

I just cannot believe how fast they are working on your new home. It seems just like yesterday that you showed us the empty lot. Wow, it really looks good.

Kat said...

You must be thrilled! It's almost time to be sitting out on your own deck having a cool drink and enjoying YOUR place. Congrats. Kathy

Now that is exciting-- seeing your new home get closer and closer to being move-in ready.

Think of the dirt pile as potential landscaping!

Can't wait to see what happens inside, when you move in and begin decorating. Good luck!
