New News

I know you're probably awaiting pictures, but I have none
to show today...Just an update. Thursday the floor guys
came in for the final time and dyed the floors. We came
in on Thursday night and waxed them and buffed them out.
Needless to say.....we have a "MUST wear Shoes" policy
in our home !! Our floors are dangerously slick right now
from the polishing, waxing, & buffing that's been done to
them. So if you come to visit, use CAUTION !! ha,ha
Saturday morning we got an early start on moving the
lower cabinets down to the house. They were heavy, but
thanks to Justin for helping and the carpet pads for sliding
them to the proper place made it alot earier. The plumber
is coming in from Nebraska to work on Sunday so that's why
we needed them in place. Billy (the plumber) started on
Sunday afternoon hooking everything up that could be.
All of our countertops and vanities are Concrete so the
sinks couldn't be set due to the fact that they have to be
poured in place. The shower's are done (except for the
doors..which are ordered), the toilets are set, and the
hot water heaters are in place and working. Cabinet doors
are in the floor waiting to be put on this week & maybe
we'll start on the countertops, as this will be a long and
trying process. Ha,ha OH, almost forgot, we've also
got to start on the bar cabinet in place since it's the last
cabinet to make. Lot's going on right now at the house.
We've also been working in the dirt work for the yard the
last couple of evenings when the sun goes down. It's almost
ready for some sod. Our friend Darrell, is gone now to North
Arkansas to pick up the stone for the retaining wall & steps.
Our stone is ordered for the fireplace, bar, exterior corners
of the house & the pedestal bottoms where the trees are.
Whoooooo.....and that's all folks !! We're tired and wearing
out day by day. Keep us in your prayers the next few weeks
as we finish up !! Don't worry.....we're not your normal couple
when it comes to building houses. We're so much alike and we
like the same things, so there's no arguing here !!! We would
probably tackle another one, if need be.....but I don't think
there's a need !! ha ha
