Alrighty... so ALOT has happened in the last 2 weeks since we posted last. Very exciting things too!! The siding is completely finished on the house and garage and has been painted! Woohoo! It is hard to tell the exact color in the pictures but it is almost like at "steel blue" or "gray-blue". Very subtle and beautiful. So so so happy with our choice. The trim is all painted white along with the porches. The metal roof went up last week. We used corrugated metal for both the house and garage and all the overhangs. We were originally going to put wood on the ceilings of the porches, BUT when we saw the exposed rafters and metal we thought it looked way too good to cover up. So you will see pics of that also.
Last week, Matt and I also spent some time finishing up some of the electrical work in the house. It was actually pretty fun working side by side doing the same work that my dad does every day. I definitely have a much bigger appreciation for what he does. And also too for all the hard work that Matt puts in day in and day out at our house, in addition to his regular work. It is not an easy job but it will be sooo rewarding in the end. We are so excited and so ready to get moved in soon. What a blessing this whole process has been. It has truly given us so much knowledge and appreciation. And it has truly been a blessing for our marriage as we work closely together and make decisions as a team. We are so thankful for this next chapter of our lives.
Stay tuned for this weeks post.... BIG things are happening this week!
