Chad's drywallers were hard at it today.
It's crazy! I knew that there'd be walls and it'd look like a house and everything, but I'd gotten so used to slipping between beams to get from one room to another. I came up the stairs into the parlor and I was awe-struck! I had to walk around the hall to get to my bathroom! Weird!
After checking up on progress, we went to check out our pond. It was honestly about 10 degrees cooler sitting by the water's edge, and it was so peaceful! "Like being back home," Andy has said. You do kinda forget about everything hectic in the world when you're there. Hopefully that continues when we're actually living there! Carter played in the dirt, tossed rocks in the pond, and "wow'ed" over the ducks. The sun began to set, and all was perfect in the world.
.. and I never wanted nothing more ..
Our drywalled parlor/office and our bathtub! Awesome, huh???
The serene and peaceful view from the pond. Quack! Quack!
Miss Messy, playing in the dirt
You can already tell that our current "park-y" time will be replaced with "pond" time once we move! She loves playing here! I guess that's a good sign!
This will be home soon!
On the drive home, we ran into this. In how many places to you actually have to stop for ducks?!?
Duck crossing .. Carter loves duckies .. it's a sign! This is where we're meant to be! We're on track!
Wow - I still can't believe how quickly that's coming together! That's great. And in that pic of Carter with her swinging arms, it looks like she's ready to jump into the pond! Maybe she'll be your little swimmer. ;)
The house is coming along! SO VERY COOL! Love seeing the progress as it is being built. YAHOOOIE!
It is fun to see how the house is progressing. Don't be afraid to take MORE pictures of ALL the rooms for us to see!!! (and of course Carter too!)
