Moving Day!!!

Yeah, it is finally here. We have finally been told that we can move into the house. We are all really excited to be able to move and spend Christmas in the new house. Sorry I do not have any new pictures but once we get moved in a settled I will try and take some new pictures and get them posted.
Since we will be moving on Saturday I now get the job of packing everything and getting ready to move. We also have Chad's Christmas party at 9am on Saturday so we are not planning on moving until around 11am. I want to thank everyone who has helped us with the house, we appreciate it a lot. Thanks and God Bless everyone during this holiday season.

All Dressed Up

My mom saved one of my dresses from when I was little so that it could be passed down to me when I had a girl. Well mom here are a couple of pictures of Tessa in my dress. I do have to say she is adorable and looks a lot like her mommy. Thanks for saving the dress for me mom.

Counter Tops and Outside play

The counter tops are finally in. Chad was really amazed how great they look and all blend with everything else. With the counter tops in and finished that puts us one step closer to being done. Yesterday, Chad and a friend got both the bathrooms and front entry way grouted and they look great. Today we have a house full of workers. The excavater came back out and finished spreading the top soil around, the plumbers are there doing all of their finish work, the counter top people came and finished a couple of back splashes, and the electrition was there installing the last of the outlets in the kitchen. Here are a few pictures of the couter tops.While we were out at the house on Tuesday I was able to get some pictures of Paxton and Tessa playing together outside. I can tell that both of them are really going to love having all the room to be able to run and play as they wish, and I don't have to worry about either one of them running out to the road. Tessa really loves being like Paxton, all thought Paxton has a lot of learning to do on sharing his toys with her. Hope you all enjoy the new pictures.

The Blanket

Okay Aunt Deb, here is a few pictures of the blanket that you helped make Tessa. I feel that this is a very special blanket due to the fact the grandma (my mom), great grandma ( my grandma), and great Aunt Deb all helped to make this blanket. Tessa really loves it. She has slept with it every night since she got it. Thanks everyone for all the hard work you have put it on it.

New house pictures

Here are some new pictures of the house. The siding is all up and completed. We chose khaki for the siding and almond for all the trim. Here is a picture of the front of the house from the road and one of the back of the house.Chad has worked all week out at the house the past week and has done a really great job on all of the tile work. This is a picture of the tile in the kitchen. Chad has finished the kitchen and dining room, both entry ways, the laundry room and the kids bathroom all but the grouting. This week we will finish the master bathroom and all of the grouting and also counter tops will be installed on the 18th. We are auctioning off the house in town and that will be taking place on the 21st. Pray that all goes well. More to come later. Love to all.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween to everyone. It is so hard to believe that this will be Tessa's second halloween. Paxton and Tessa are both getting so big. This year Paxton wanted to be a turtle, and he is a really cute one. Tessa is a ladybug this year and so adorable. We will be going to grammys work and gradmas work and also to old town Pocatello and maybe the mall. It will be great fun. Here are some pictures of the cute kids.

New pictures

I finally got some new pictures of Paxton's trains and also pictures of the cabinets. I will be finishing up Paxton's room this week so once it is fully completed I will post the finished pictures. The cabinets are a spiced Hickory. Chad and I both really love the look of them and can not wait to see them with the counter tops. Here is a picture looking from the dining room into the kitchen.
