Whew what a week!

Well I can tell you that it has been such a busy week, finished one show at work and started moving another one in while the other show was moving out!! Let's just say for the last week straight I have been going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. Therefore I have no pictures of the house...But so much has happened this week! They primed the outside of the house, flattened out the front yard, painted inside, put the trim around the doors, put doors on and we have all the cabinets in a bundle waiting to be installed this week! We got exciting news that our "hard" date for closing will be Oct. 29th!! So we are really excited!! Anyone off on Thursday the 30th?? We will be moving!! We can use your help! (Rich hint, hint) lol!! We booked the cruise and sent the first batch of "Save the Dates" out!! Trying to fit in time to finish those up as well! So it has been such a busy week! Well gotta run! I will try to get some pictures up this week!

Sarah and Fernando's Wedding!





This past weekend Anthony and I went to our friend Sarah's wedding. We both met Sarah while working at Gaylord Palms.  (Anthony and Sarah actually opened the Palms together!!) Sarah and I used to work at the Front Desk together and then for a short time we shared cubies in Conference Services! Sarah was a beautiful bride and the evening was great! Sarah and Fernando got married at Reunion which was so pretty! We got to see a lot of old co-workers and friends from Gaylord.  We had a great time celebrating with Sarah and Fernando!

We have walls!!


Coming in the front door...


Looking at what is going to be the island and the dining room/living room


View toward the master bedroom


That people is my pantry...it is pretty big!!

Monday afternoon Anthony and I met with Mike, our KB Foreman and we did a "Frame" walk of the house and he told us all about the wiring and about the framing and the next steps of the house. Which is Dry wall!! So here are the pictures of the drywall!! It looks so different with walls up rather than just the framing! 
Tonight I got a phone call from one of my sorority little sisters, Amanda! So that was nice to catch up with her, she is also buying a house at this time so we were talking about our houses. Who would have thought when we met in O'Connor Hall at SUNY Delhi that 10 years later we would be talking about building houses and weddings and stuff!!  (I know you didn't cause you thought I was crazy!) lol!! Enjoy the pictures!

It is coming along!




Sorry I have not posted in a while, work has started to get busy again since it is coming into the Fall Season....So the house is coming along! We have windows, electric, stucco, A/C, tubs and shower are in and it is so exciting to see it coming along! Today I took a picture of my neighbors house too. It is the same square footage as our home, but since we have a different front our house looks bigger. Our expected close date is October 27th.  We are super excited!!
Like I mentioned above, work is picking up, the groups are steady until Christmas, so it is going to be a very busy Fall/Winter! My sister's kids Abby and Becca started 1st grade this year and Gavin started Pre-K. They love school. Abby likes to talk on the phone and if I call in the PM Amy lets her pick up the phone and say Hello, so I think it is my sister and she will say "No, Aunt Leann it is me Abby". The other day she told me that after I was done talking to Gavin she wanted to talk to Uncle Anthony. (I was at work and Anthony was home) So I had Anthony call her and she wanted to tell him that her tooth was loose. She is so funny! Check out my sisters blog, she updated their pictures too.
