The Latest on House Progress

Well, I thought I'd update this more, sorry folks. Here's some of our latest efforts:

The mail box was installed shortly after we moved in, but I forgot to get a picture. So, here it is in all it's Postal glory.

Adam connect the remaining sprinkler pipes to valves on the side of the house. This shows everything put together before he filled in the dirt and grass.

And here's the after shot - you can't even tell he ripped up all that grass. The sprinklers still have quite a bit of work left on them - but it's really cold out and I don't think we need to water the lawn anyway right now.

We finished the shelving in the Master Closet! Now we have ample room for our clothes. We are still going to get two dressers for more storage, but it's plenty great as is.

I gave the Master Bedroom and Bath a final coat of paint. It made a huge difference and looks great. The best part was that Adam let us hang pictures on the walls!! I didn't get any pictures yet . . . but it's looking much more put together.

Adam hung blinds across the front of the house. Merry Christmas - I love having our tree in the front window so everyone can see the lights. :)

Adam and I cleared out half of the garage last week enough to fit my car in there. I am so extra thankful to have a car in the garage, especially with mornings like today that started in the mid 20s!

We officially closed on our house loan on Friday!! We are very excited to get out of the construction loan and into a conventional mortgage! Everything went smooth with the closing, it was just a few months later than anticipated.
