House Updates!

So we closed escrow in August and have been working on the house pretty much non-stop since. Just some pictures to update everyone on the progress.

Escrow is FINALLY closed! Our realtor when he was suppose to be giving us the keys, the other realtor had already taken them though so we broke in to our home the first night we owned it! Good thing is we figured out we had a broken window!

They'll be many nights ahead of this, checking to make sure all the doors are locked before we leave

WOW!!! You guys are working so hard. I'm in awe!

Love the kids helping with the wallpaper and can't wait to see the ladybugs in Faith's room. I bet it's going to be great. Actually, the whole place is going to be awesome - especially because it's YOURS!!!!

When are you shooting to be through and moving in?
