We finally have the keys

Finally, we have the keys to our new house.  We ended up getting the keys late yesterday and spent all day today cleaning the house from top to bottom.  Thank goodness Rob has the week off so we have all our appointments scheduled for tomorrow and Tuesday.  The movers are packing us up on Thursday and unpacking us on Friday.....yes we have that much stuff that they can't pack and unpack us on the same day.

Below are the final pictures of what it looks like!

Front of our house - landscaping will hopefully start in the next month or so.

We love our front door.

delayed again

No new photos to post, sadly our close date has been pushed back to May 17th.  We have been assured that they can meet this date....we sure hope so as we are moving May 23/24 so there is little wiggle room.  The stress level in our house has gone up significantly so we are truly going to enjoy the first night drinking a few beverages on the back deck.  When we close on the house I'll post some final photos so everyone can see the finished product.

We want to thank everyone for all the positive comments regarding the house.  This is a dream house for us and we are very happy with how things are coming along.  We have 2 spare bedrooms and would love to have visitors when we get settled.

Getting closer...

So here are some of the latest photos.  We are getting closer, have I said that before??  I think they still need at least another week, so we will see of our close date changes or not.  I'm very glad that we scheduled our move for the end of the month, so we wouldn't have to be moving that around.

Right now it's just a waiting game, there is so much to do but nothing we can do until after we close.

This is a picture of the backs splash in the kitchen.

Move Date Set

Many, many things are happening.  We have scheduled our move date - May 23-24, now all we need is to have a settlement date.....we are hoping to close May 6, 7 or 8, keep your fingers crossed.

This is one of the spare bathroom showers

and here is the other spare bedroom shower.

Lights are being installed - here are the lights at the front door.

All the stone is finally completed, this was the last part.

Looks like move in will be in May

It looks like our move in will be in May, but the actual date is still undecided, it could be as soon as May 6th or as late as May 23rd.  All part of waiting for work to finish.  The volume of work has definitely picked up in the past couple of weeks and there are lots of people in the house.  

Here are some of the latest pictures of the work.

Utility room cabinets.

Yet another picture of the fireplace, the bench is now done, looks like the last thing is for the mantel to be installed.

Kitchen counter tops!

Kitchen cabinets, the stain came out perfect!

This picture is standing on the front porch and looking up.  We love all the arches.

The kitchen, they still need to install the stone on the curved island.
