August 14, 2009 Well as you may have assumed the closing that was scheduled in July did not happen due to illness, vacation, etc. The house is still completed and waiting for me to move in and I can't wait.
Tracey called today and the closing has been rescheduled for Friday, August 21, 2009 at 10:30 so please pray that it will happen.

Closing scheduled for July 30, 2009

On July 16, 2009 Tracy called and said that the closing will be on Thursday, July 30, 2009. I had to contact my insurance agent and get a policy to Tracy so that it will be in place as soon as the closing is done.

Kissy and Tammy have come down 2 different times to pack up my room and my bathroom so that I can get moved as soon as they say 'here are your keys". My bedroom looks like it is so empty - no pictures on the walls, nothing on the shelves, nothing on the cedar chest, really just nothing. Hmmmm, perhaps we will add some pictures here of the moving process - it is really amazing how much stuff I have, well maybe not.
On July 12, a Sunday evening some of the construction guys were swimming and riding dirt bikes and a couple of them wrecked and ended up in Ruby Memorial Hospital with broken bones. We are praying for your quick recovery Brian and Rick. Hurry and get well so that you can come to the housewarming party.

July 2, 2009, Putting the almost finishing touches on the tub .
July 1, 2009 Above Jennifer is trying out one of the pocket doors in the house. They are so neat.
Of course you have to check out the closets, even if they are empty (for a short time).

She really likes those "rocker" light switches, doesn't take too much to get them on and off.






July 2, 2009 Today is an inspection day and Jennifer is trying out the "kitchen tools". Although she appears to be asleep she is really excited.

July 2, 2009 Adding the dishwasher as well as the counter top stove and wall oven.


July 1, Robbie and Kristi standing in the driveway.
Two of the fun things of being a home owner -

a tree that needs cut down and --

July 1, 2009 I guess the look at Samuel's face speaks volumes for the new doors. The are really nice even though his smirk looks otherwise.

June 25, 2009 Although we didn't get a picture of it Jennifer went to the Lumberport Shinnston Gas Co. office in Lumberport to sign up for gas. Of course she had to pay a deposit and Mark will have to do some kind of air test before they will set the meter but she is now officially signed up.
June 26, 2009 Above is Jennifer's first feathery visitor. He/she was sitting in the side yard.
Reinforcing the railing on the front of the house, just in case.
This is the inside of the linen closet.

The kitchen sink is installed and Jennifer can wash dishes.






June 26, 2009 The tub has arrived and looks like it is supposed to. The other picture is of her sink in the master bathroom.


June 24, 2009 Some shots of the house and driveway in the early morning.
Jennifer had to write in the wet cement to leave her mark. She had done that earlier but the rain washed it away - awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.











June 22, 2009 Bob and some of the cabinet workers on the back porch. Also a picture of the driveway from the back porch and the dust to dawn light on the back of the house.
