Are You Ready--

FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!

It's that time of year again. It should be a really good game tomorrow. The kids & I will be in Price with Stacy to do some shoe shopping and dance watching and movie going.

LaRue--as usual, you amaze me. Inviting complete strangers over to your house to watch the game because the motel they're staying at doesn't have The Mountain Network. Thank you. I think they'll do a much better job on my heating & AC now that they have motivation. You're a good woman! Never ceases to amaze me how you can walk into a place (even if it is my new house) and be friends right away--friendly enough to know that the guys there want to finish my house this weekend so they're staying here, but are bummed they can't watch the game. Make them some of your famous honey popcorn and take good care of the "Rons" (that's their names. Father & Son).

Can't wait to see you all in a few days. Take care.

House Pictures

Here are some new photos of the house. I took these about a week ago. My stove, microwave & dishwasher have been put in. But here's pictures of the kitchen. I like it.

It's going to be nice having that many cupboards and counter top. The microwave is above the stove, so I don't have to have one on the counter taking up space.

The next picture is the back of my house and the guy building the deck. I'm going to love the deck. I sat in my new bedroom tonight and watched a mommy dear and her babies playing in my back yard.

The next picture is one I took today of the stone on the front of the house. They finished it today. They also finished all the baseboards where tile had been laid, they installed the glass surround on my shower and put mirrors in the bathrooms. The faucets and light fixtures are beautiful, but I haven't taken pictures of them yet.

It's getting close, and I'm excited. But, still no buyer on our current home. That scares me so bad. It makes me want to curl up in a ball and hide. But, hey, I'm going out in style!!

Allie

I finally got Allie's school picture. She's such a cutie.

There is still one reader of this blog!

I like the weather widgets. Can be good or bad to look at them, depending on the day...okay here, just a bit nippy.
Isnt' Ambien supposed to make you sleep? Not sleepwalk?
Love the pics of the house. I'm so happy for you. I'm really trying to be happy with mine, just wish the darn ticky-tacky stuff was done. Guess if I hired it out, it might get done. What's your finish date?

guess I better go keep the girls moving...

I Need A Scanner

Here's Peyton's school picture--a picture of a picture taken with my crappy cell phone. My scanner went kaput and I haven't replaced it, so here is my little man--wearing his Wrangler "cowboy" shirt. He insisted.



Allie missed school yesterday so I don't have her picture yet.

Ambien distractions

I'm up, I won't remember any of this tomorrow, and since no one reads this dang blog any more, I thought I'd pretty it up with a little bit of widgetitis. I like it. You no like it--you changes it.

Can't type while under ambien influence either.
Later loverly sisters and mommy

New Picture

Here is a picture of my new family/dining/kitchen in the new house. I'm on the end of the family room shooting toward the kitchen. You can see the French doors to the deck and the other door for the pantry. Cool huh??

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Kassie!!
Hope you have a good one full of craziness and joy.

Windows

I have windows!!

This is a picture of the bay window in my bedroom and it's loverly view.



This is a picture of my bay window in my living room and a shot of what the front of my house will look like.



Jim & I went to the great city (gag! NOT) of Grand Junction yesterday to spend money we don't even remotely have. We purchased a new fridge for the house and 2 ceiling fans for my room and the family room. I'm getting excited!! They're going to be installing the sheet rock tomorrow!

I can't believe the windows, though. Jim & I were down there last night at 8 and there were no windows. It was dark. Hard to work in the dark. The windows were all installed by 9 am this morning. I have no idea when they showed up to do it, but dang, that's fast.

Progress

This is from last night. There were no contractors there last week. We did get Empire to run the electricity to the house though. They are coming this week to do the plumbing, electrical, heating & AC and maybe starting on the outside stuff like shingles and stucco and rock.

I'm getting so excited!
