Watching our very own home where we picked out almost every detail be built is seriously one of the most amazing things ever! It's been so fun driving over to our lot every day and seeing what progress was made for the day. We had so much fun picking out colors and tiles to picking out the color of our roof and garage. haha.The house is completely framed and sheet rocked. We went over last night and they have all the baseboards,doors, window seals,fire place is done with the mantel, our staircase is done and they've started painting. We're told cupboards and vanities are next. We are just to dang excited. We're hoping to be able to start moving in the end of January but we shall see.. Hopefully 20 ish more days =)

Building our home
Back in August Bradon and I started talking about putting our house back up on the market. We've both wanted to build for the pass couple years but wanted to make sure we weren't just giving our current home away and was going to make the most we could from it. We decided we would start working on the bathroom downstairs slowly and just let the people who came to look at the house that the bathroom was guaranteed to be finished by move in day. Last time we tried to sale our house we had 1-2 showings a day but never any offers, so we thought we'd have plenty of time to finish the bathroom. Little did we know the 4th people and day 5 we had full asking price offered to us.. It was so surreal and a tad bit stressful all at the same time. Luckily i have a very handy father in law and amazing dad and brother in laws that were there almost every day to help us finish up the bathroom as quickly as possible. We were so excited it was finally happening. A week before closing we got news that the cosigner wasn't eligible anymore to help with the loan, i think that was one of the worst things we were wanting to hear. About 2-3 days later they came back and said that an uncle was going to help cosign. HALLEJUHA!!! we closed on the house on October 6th and moved in with my parents.We are very thankful for them and letting us into there house while our new home is being built. It's been quite the adventure but we would have never been able to make it work without them.
