A Christmas Miracle - Seeing the Cook's on Christmas

On Christmas Day, Chad and I were able to meet The Cook's at our house on Dec 25th 2015. It was a Christmas Miracle seeing that this never happens, Jim, Kim, Bob, and Sean where passing through town before hooping on a train back home to Utah. Bob & Sean drove the car back to Kentucky. Here are some of the pictures that Chad took that day. Trim was going in and it looks ready for some paint. Hoping to get out there over New Years weekend.

Merry Christmas - Altes Christmas Card

Merry Christmas!!!

I was not able to send my Christmas Card out this year. Time just got away from me. However, I did start it, I photo shopped Christmas Lights on our house and driveway and even added some to where I believe we will have bushes.

Christmas In the Apartment - 2015

Y'all know that I'm a Christmas Nut! It is very hard to have all your Christmas Decoration in storage so I had to make do this year. Chad and I bought 3 Christmas Tree like shrubs at Home Dept, decorated them with lights and bulbs. Once we close on the house we plan on planting them in our yard to remember our time in the apartment and building the house.

At work, I cut out tons of snowflakes and hung them on the lights and decorated the window and my cube with them. Cutting snowflakes out was a great de-stresser over lunch.

Finally Progress....Sheet Rock!!!

Update on Applicances

Turns out I was able to price match a couple of our appliances so I upgrade my cook top. It will have no knobs. Thank you Home Depot.

First Breakfast in the New House

Chad and I sent a couple hours at the house a week ago. We brought chairs and breakfast with us and ate in our dining room. While we were there we measured out several different items that I have been concerned about. In the below picture you will see that we measured out the new dining room table that I would love to get. 

400 Pictures

Chad and I thought it would be a good idea to take pictures of everything before the drywall went up. Chad went to the house and took over 400 pictures. Thought I would just share one of them and not all.

Let there be an ARCH!

Showing Gina and Elbin around before they leave KC and we noticed that they got the arch modeled.
