We're Moving Right Along

What are we up to these days? Well, we bought a house, yep we did. And we have all these plans and high hopes for it, see, so now the work begins.

First we wanted to take all of the popcorn acoustic off of the ceiling, a pretty big deal, and Jeremy's parents came to help us make that happen. What a mess! 


Then Jeremy and his Dad sprayed texture on the ceiling to finish off the dirty work. 



That was all done in two days! And we sure were burning the candle at both ends.

Then Jeremy with the help of his buddy Sei (thank you Sei) painted the textured ceiling and it looks beautiful!


Next comes painting the house. So many colors to choose from! I don't want to reveal too much, that will come when all is done, but here are Jeremy and CJ painting CJ's room, it was the highlight of Christopher's week!



We also had our backyard dug up a bit for a french drain so that the foundation would remain secure during the Texas storms, I can't wait to be in our new home when one hits!


So now we just have to finish the paint, which should happen tonight, and then the carpet comes tomorrow, and then we move in Saturday!!



This is when we were painting CJ's room. Lizzie got all into it with us, hands and all.


I can't wait for this weekend, I've been packing here at home and I feel like we're good to go!


PS it's Elizabeth Jane Hunt's first birthday this Sunday, May 30th, and then we're off to a Hunt family reunion so it may be awhile before I post again, but don't stop belivin', there's always more comin'!
