So Close!!!

Here is a picture of our house! We are getting really close and it is beginning to seem real that we are actually going to live here! The outside painting and stonework is almost finished. The guy (Caroline & Abby call all the men who work on the house "guys"!) is laying ceramic tile in the bathrooms this week. Michael is currently painting the ceilings and he'll start putting the finishing trim and hardwoods down this weekend. He is pretty amazing...working 10 hour days at the office and then putting in a few more hours at the house every night. I don't remember the last weekend we spent just doing nothing and Michael not having to work! But soon, very soon, we will move into a beautiful home that he has worked so hard for! And then we'll need a vacation! There are more pictures in Photo Gallery II.
