67 Days and Counting Down....

Chris and I got to go to the house together this morning.  They have the first part of the Hardi siding up on the front of the house.  We spent many hours picking out the colors for the front of the house and it was fun to see what it's going to look like.

As you can tell it was a beautiful day today.  We were excited to see that they had broken ground on the other house in our circle.  Our new neighbors will be in shortly after us this summer.  Our builder also just started another house down the street from us and the framers were out all day today framing up that house.  We're hoping that we'll get to close on our house right before Memorial Day - which really isn't that far away!

I'm not exactly sure what these are for but I'm guessing it's for something to do with the siding that will go on next week.

We spent another four hours at Village Floor tonight.  In the past seven days that brings the count up to about 13 hours (not that we're counting)!  We had a pretty good grasp of our selections before today and were thankful to have Mary along with us to help finalize some decisions.  Shelly from Village has been helping us thru the process and has been very patient.  Having both of them together today was very helpful.

We had many, many different samples of carpet, floor tile, wall tile, subway tile, mosiac tile, grout, cultured marble, laminate and paint out today.  Here is a picture of Shelly and Mary looking at our options.
