New House

The house is painted and the outside is almost complete! It's on to the inside. Yesterday the dry wall was completed and the house now looks like what we bought. It's amazing on how just putting that up changes the whole look. We are excited!!

Cannon Beach 2011

We just got back from a fabulous time at Cannon Beach, OR! The temperatures were perfect and we had mostly sunny days. The place we stayed at, The Seasprite, was awesome and right off the beach. We were so lucky to get 5 nights there and Emmett was able to celebrate his birthday in a beautiful setting. We had so much fun and also took a day trip to Portland to see my uncle. While in Portland, we tried Voodoo doughnuts. They were ok, but a lot of fun to see all the novelty doughnuts that they have come up with. I also found a great crepe place in Cannon Beach and might be a little addicted now. It is owned by a cute family of 3. We also went to Hug point to check out our engagement spot and took a little drive to Tillamook to get some of the best cheese and ice cream ever! It was so hard to come back home, but back to work tomorrow. I will miss my evening walks on the beach each day. Next trip is in 2 weeks to Lake Powell with all the fam!

PS. We loved the little bunnies all over the hotel grounds. Except the one that tried to attck Emmett...not so cute.

House in progress

I don't know why the pictures have to come up in reverse order of how I uploaded them, but oh well I guess. So obviously the bottom is pre-house and the top two are the most current. I thought I could have patience, but I don't. I want it to move faster. It's been fun to look at the house everyday to see what has been done!

I LOVE the patio cover! I sooo can't wait to use it!!

So far our closing date is September 30th. We haven't packed a thing so I guess we should get going with that!
