We had our final walk through with the builder on Friday and things are getting pretty exciting! We didn't get to take many pictures but here are the ones that we got. There was someone working on the door, so you can't really tell, but the front door matches the color of the shutters. We have an exciting week ahead of us!

We are almost homeowners!

Well, I apologize because I have had some of these pictures for awhile. I just haven't posted them. So, I will try to post these is the correct order. Every time that I think our pictures are in a certain order, I click the button that says "post" and once they are posted, they are all scrambled up. So, no promises there. There is not much left to do on the house. They still have to stain the front door and put the shutters up, which they may have already done. We will find out tomorrow. :) Other than that, a little bit of tidying up and we are about ready to move in. We are closing on September 11 and we can't wait! That is in a week-wow! There is a picture of me standing next to a tree. This is a Savanah Holly tree that mom and dad surprised us with. We can't wait to watch it grow as we make memories in our new home. Enjoy the pictures and have a great rest of the week! We love y'all!

Hi everyone! Here are a few more pictures that we took this week. We are getting very excited!

Dicky will officially be working as PA in the ER this week (Thursday). So he is looking forward to that.

I had a week full of hospital and nursing orientation in Allen. I really think I am going to love it! I start on the floor on Tuesday.

I hope you all have a great week and stay cool....it is hot out there!

Brick Pictures

So...when I woke up at 5:00 this morning, I stumbled my way into the bathroom to brush my teeth and I thought to myself, "I have got to go to sleep early tonight because this is rough." But it is 11:00 and I am still awake because I really wanted to post our newest pictures of the house.

Dicky had to be at work from 7-4 and I had to be at work from 8-5. With the gas prices the way they are, we figured we would ride together since we had to drive an hour. I didn't know Dicky liked am radio-WBAP (at a volume that was much higher than any normal human being should listen to). Why is it that when guys listen to talk radio, they crank it up so loud? I guess I don't have room to talk. I definately turn my radio up. I could only handle so much of that at 6:00 in the morning. I quickly changed it to fm radio-they play music.

Anyway, when we got off of work, we drove to Anna. This is what we found...

Another month has gone by so fast! We will have a lot going on this month. Dicky has been working in the ER in McKinney for awhile. He has been on orientation, however, and will officially start working as a Physician Assistant on August 15. My first day of work is on Monday, August 4.

In addition to the new jobs, things are moving right along with the house. Our brick is on back order so things are running a little behind. It is no big deal to us though-we are still thrilled with the way everything is going. That gives me more time to make curtains! :)

Last time we visited the house, I forgot my camera card. I remembered it this time, as promised, and here are a few more pictures of the interior of the house. Enjoy!

Howdy!

"Well, foot..."

That is what I said the other day when we went out to the house. I brought the camera and pressed the button to take a picture and I got a lovely message. A black screen told me that there was no memory card. Oh man! It was in my shorts that I wore to Walmart when I went to print the pictures. So...I have an update but no pictures. I know, I know, that is not any fun! But we do have cabinets, interior doors, closet shelves, and paint on the walls. Yee haw! We didn't want to leave. We just stood there and stared at everything. We were both thinking, "Wow, this is almost ours! " So there is still more to do, but it is actually looking like a house. We can't wait for y'all to come over and play Mad Gab, Sequence, or Rummikub. We are working on our game collection but that should keep us all entertained for awhile. The next time we go out, I promise I will take the camera (with the memory card). Bye for now and I hope you are all well!
