It's been two weeks since I saw my house and a lot has been done. They have all of the electric wiring done:






All of the insulation in and the dry wall ready to go up (this is my niece Tycee, who posed for a picture in all of the rooms (thanks for stickin' with me Tycee!!):


And the windows and front and back doors in (that's me!): (The front door is supposed to be red, so use your imagination and pretend you see a red door, not a white one!)


I took lots of family out with me and had them peaking out the windows.

Tycee, Nikki and Makenzie in the top window:

Brenley and Caden in the bottom window and then Haley and Ariana and Brandon in the others.


Close up of Brenley and Caden.


I got a letter from Bigg Homes (my builder) last Saturday the 13th that said the house could be done within thirty days, which , if they are correct, would be even earlier than they first told me. I really don't want to get my hopes up but I do hope they're right. I would love to be able to move in within the next 3 weeks - I'm already packing, so why wait?!?!

I hope everyone has an awesome Christmas filled with the Spirit of Christ, family, friends and lots of love!!

This week they had most of the heating ducts in place. . .



. . .the pipes for the plumbing done. . .



(Haley and Camden checking things out for me)

. . . and the shingles on the roof.

For this first picture of the roof, I went next door and took it from the second floor window. I'm glad they got the shingle on cuz we got lots of snow today!!! I only hope they can get the siding on before the wood gets too wet and hopefully the windows in so there isn't any water inside!!!

This week there were heating ducts in my garage. . .









. . . bathtubs in my living room. . .





. . . and a roof over my head!!!!


Here is my bedroom, my closet and a look at the rest of the top floor from my bedroom. It looks a lot bigger or actually like it should with the roof on. Last week everything looked smaller than I thought it was supposed to be so I was freaking out a little!! This time out I had family with me to see it. Tina and Sal and the girls were home for Thanksgiving so I took them and Mom and Dad and Craig all out to see it. It was fun being able to show it off in person!! I'm excited for more family to see it soon!!!


Since I had others with me, I was able to put myself in a picture - in the front door with Ariana and Tycee and then a look at the house with the roof on!!
