Almost Done!!!!

So on Thursday the 28th Corey and I took a drive to the house to do a last look at the house until our Final Walk Through on the 5th!!!  It is so amazing on how quickly they get stuff done.  All the outside decorations are up, side gate to the backyard up, they leveled out our dirt in our backyard, Carpet in, all toilets, sinks and fixtures up.  The only thing they had left to do was paint our garage door, put our kitchen counter tops in, kitchen sink, our appliances, our temp. gage in upstairs and downstairs and of course touch ups.  Also our front yard landscaping.  My father in law went out to the house yesterday and said all this has been done except: Garage door painted, front yard landscaped, and kitchen sink.  Crazy to think in 1 day how much they do.  So here is the last of the production pictures next time you will see the house it will be completed!!!

Summer Fun

While all this craziness is going on we have managed to still squeeze in some fun.  We have gone swimming a couple of times and took the boys to The Bass Pro Shop to dream about what kind of boat we wanna get once we have no kids!!!  The boys had fun.

House Progress Part 2...

Like I promised here are some more recent pictures of the house.  We have been up there a lot lately but now its crunch time.  We just have a few final things to get and we will be ready to go.

House Progress Part 1...

So we are 2 weeks away from our Final Walk through and about 2 1/2-3 weeks till we get KEYS!!!  We are super excited and cant wait to spend time in our own house and where we can have the boys bring their families to visit because we are not moving again!!!  Below is some progress of our house I will post some more soon.  Its pretty amazing how quickly they move along with getting stuff done!  Our whole block is almost done its pretty cool to watch!  The boys are ready for their new rooms and house!

Colin's 7th Birthday part 2...

This year Colin's party was at Chuck E Cheese!!!  This is my first party that I did not do 1 single thing!!!  It was very weird for me but we just had way too much going on.  Colin wanted a Spiderman Cake so that is what we got and the Chuck E Cheese Crew did the rest for us!  It turned out really good and all the kids had a blast.  Thank you all that came and made Colin's Day so special...we Love you all

Colin's 7th Birthday part 1...

I wanted to thank everyone for making Colin's 7th Birthday a very special one!!  Our Cousin Nick came to have a good time with us (which he was a surprise to the kiddos, which turned more into a few confused kids to why he was here lol).  So on his actual birthday Corey, Nick and I took the boys bowling as Corey was our camera man and sat it out due to his neck and arm injury...Nick and I had a blast trying to see who was the best Cousin Bowling!!!  I won round 1 and he won round 2...there was no tie breaker so that is still up in the air on who is the Best (hint hint...its ME).  So here is a few pictures of our great day out.

P.s.  If you click on the Collage Picture it will get bigger so you can see the pictures better!!!

Summer Vacation 2011...

Well we wasted no time for our Summer Vacation this year!!!  We headed up to Quincy 2 days after Colin got out of school!!!  This is extremely early for us but since we are building our house we had to change things up a little this year!  We also had to cut it a week short which meant trying to cram everything into a shorter period of time, we almost succeed.  So lets run down some highlights!!


1.  We met my Auntie Jean and Nick at Six Flags/Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, CA for a very Fun Filled long day!!!  From 11am-8:30pm we were there making sure we didn't miss a thing.  We really enjoyed ourselves and had a great time. 

2.  We spent Fathers Day with my Mom's Family, it was really nice to see all my Aunts and most of my Cousin's all together!  This doesn't happen as much anymore!  We had a nice BBQ for Grandpa.

3.  I finally got to meet my Twin Cousin's!!!  We went to Melissa's and Craig's for dinner and got to play with the kids.  Its funny to see such cuteness in one household but also to see the 2 different personalities.  Brayden is not shy loves to play as for Cassidy she is more shy and has to warm up to strangers!!!  It was  a nice visit.

4.  We also had fun at Grandma & Grandpa's house just playing in Grass and sprinklers!!!  I have a really funny video of Andrew playing in the sprinkler I just have to edit it.  We also took the boys to the Railroad Museum.  We had a blast they even found a real railroad spike!!!
