Launch Reset: T Minus 34 Days and Counting...

Drywall that won't dry...sub-contractor delays...flooring glitches...etc...

Our new moving day is January 18th! We've taken the week of January 14th off to paint, receive deliveries, and have flooring installed. Our best friends, Lynn and John, are coming the weekend of the 19th to help unpack...and to be the very first overnight guests in our home! Dream homes take patience and, even though our patience is running out, we know it will all be worth it in the end!

This is probably our last blog post until after the new year. We'll be in Southern California for Christmas and Tucson for the start of the new year. We pray you and your loved ones have a wonderful holiday season. Please plan to visit us at Cabana de la Cruz in 2008!

T Minus 15 Days and Counting

The movers are coming Monday, December 17th so we only have 15 days left in the apartment! We'll be painting Thursday-Sunday this week. Feel free to come by to help!



OUR ELECTRICAL POLE


The wiring is in a trench leading to the house so there are no overhead wires. Maybe PG&E will finish their part of it this week so we'll have power in the house by this weekend?




The stairs leading to the front door are taking shape.


THE BASEMENT DEN


THE CLOSET IN ONE OF THE GUEST ROOMS


THE STORAGE ROOM

The tankless water heater is waiting to be installed.



THE KITCHEN

This is the wall where the sink and cabinets will go. The back door is at the left of the photo.


THE GREAT ROOM

The front door and stairs to the basement are toward the left of the photo. The log columns are the entry to the hallway which leads to the master bedroom and bathroom.
