I have been waiting a long time to write this blog post. Â I am finally getting to see what the house might look like once it’s all finished.
I knew they would be putting siding on soon but wasn’t sure when. Â Kalissa had to work this morning a 6-2 shift. Â On her way home she drove past out new house. Â She immediately called me and said mom…I see some gray. Â That’s when I knew I had to go into town tonight to see for myself. Â At about 5 pm I called Kalissa and asked if she wanted to walk to the dogs with me. Â The plan was to walk the dogs making sure we walked around the block out house is on so we could get a good look.
I drove past the front of the house but no siding. Â I wondered if she was mistaken.
I picked up Kalissa and Betsy and we started walking towards my house. Â As we came around the bend, I saw this! Â It’s my house!!
I talked to Kalissa and she said that the south side of the house was about this far along when she drove by at 2:30pm but she didn’t see the activity in the back.
WOW…I am impressed and I love it!
When we were deciding on color we went back and forth. Â It almost ended up white simply because we didn’t know what we wanted and white is never really “wrong”. Â Then we almost went with a light gray as Hubby thought this was too dark. Â I had wanted a darker more of a blue/gray color. Â Once I got Hubby convinced that the darker color would be okay, he thought the gray would be fine. Â I really like it and am eager to see the entire house finished. Â They do have a few pieces on the garage back wall and north wall.
When I talked last to the carpenter the plan is to keep working on siding unless it rains. Â Then they’ll move in and start sheet rock. Â Either way, I can’t loose. Â Sheet rock or siding…I am saying YES. YES. Â YES to either option.
So is it safe to start packing yet??
