HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S....My goodness, have I ever been ready for 2010 to be over, done with and to start a brand new fabulous year...positive thoughts positive thoughts!  I definitely don't think I will look back on 2010 as the best year ever BUT I must say our family does have many many blessings and I know we are extremely thankfully for all of them.  

So it has been way way too long since I've updated this blog but thanks to my office being either Buffalo Wild Wings or Taco Cabana these days....uploading photos is much more difficult than I was hoping....I am pretty sure I'm beginning to get strange looks from the workers... 

7001 Epworth is really looking like a real house!  We left for Houston with the house looking like this from the outside:

 here comes my brick! :) 

 my stone is going in!

 that little roof above the porch will actually be tin eventually!

SOOOO we flew back from Colorado on Sunday and we were so super excited to come home to this:

 A BEEEUTIFUL HOUSE!!!

 that back section has to be stucco (HOA reasoning) but don't worry that is the base color...not the real color.  it's going to be a light color that matches the house!

the zero lot side with no windows except the glass block in our bathroom.  Annie, this pic is for ya!  I know how much you love glass blocks! LOL

 as ricky so kindly pointed out....landscaping needs some work! :) 

 the guys on scaffolding building our stone fireplace and wall

 our texture guy hand trowling the walls (might be spelling that completely wrong)

here comes our stone! :) 

Now that I know where is the best place to upload pics (the parking lot of Patrick's office) I will try and be better about adding new pics!  Next week I am heading to Houston for a few days but while I am gone a TON is going to happen in the house.  I will try and post more pics when I return to Dallas later next week.  The hardwood floors and paint will be happening next week!  The next few weeks are going to be pretty awesome so stay tuned!

I took a video this morning but I am going to have to get more battery juice before I can upload it bc that will take at least an hour to upload if it works.  

have a wonderful weekend.  Geaux Tigers! :)
