Gettin There

We are now getting into the closing stages for the house. Too bad the closing stages take like 5 to 6 more weeks. Nonetheless, it has been really great to see the progress in the house everyday. These are the most up to date pictures I have at this point but not necessarily the most update of the actual house at this point. I will try to get that at some point this week! Here is a teaser with more to come:



ALOT of trim work has been done and they are actually almost completely done with it!

There are built-ins that will surround the fireplace but I was most excited to show you the brick work!

All doors are in, at this point they have actually been placed already. 



Okay, that is just an idea of where we are right now. Zach and I are getting so excited about moving in and we can probably say that this is the first time that we are actually excited to move. We are hoping that all of that goes smoothly because as mentioned in a previous post our stuff is EVERYWHERE! So hopefully we can get everyone on the same page and moving at the same time. Have fun viewing and let me know what you think!

Hizzie Update

I hope that everyone had a great weekend! We sure did! It was a fun, full, and fairly productive weekend too! I have more recent pictures of our progress on the house. We were told last week 8 MORE WEEKS!!! Our builder told us that we are right on schedule which is awesome news! Keepin' up that positive thinking about our house! 


Living room area and fireplace obviously. But as you can tell drywall is up! Woohoo!

Our tub is in. To give you an idea this is across from the shower that I think that I posted earlier!

We happened to be there when they were scoring and staining our kitchen floor. I got to catch it before they covered it up! It looks great!

This is our back porch we had this scored and they will eventually stain this as well.

And finally the front. This is what the house looks like so far. I will say that the painter painted this past Saturday but that is not in these pictures. The house is a golden color, almost the color of the siding that you see now. If you look closely you can see half of our columns that will be on our front porch! 


Hope you like what you see so far! Let me know what you think!

Dougie Dancin'

HA!!! Okay first of all I am huge Glee fan. I know that the actual story line of the show is not the best but I have to say that the music and the dancing are the things that entice me the most. Seriously it's like I can't get enough....so of course being obsessed with Glee like I am (I refuse to call myself a Gleek, too cliche) I was Youtubing some Glee cast videos and came across this video. Heather Morris (aka Brittany on Glee) is an amazing dancer and to me hands down the funniest character on the show. You can watch not only this video but I would refer you to her performing TikTok by KedollarsignHA to view more of her talent!
For those of you who know me you know that I love to dance and especially get into hiphop. I often forget that I was once a hiphop dance teacher at a studio, sad I know but true. But as I get older the places to hiphop dance are few and far between so I stick to watching youtube videos to learn new dances. Yep, that's right. So enough with confession time, just watch you will see and maybe by the end of this video you will know how to "Dougie". (Did not mean to rhyme at the end)
