Here is one of the sideyards. Lots of grass to mow and water. Good thing winter is coming.
Here is the backyard.
Sideyard view from the backyard.
Here's the side yard, and Jason.
I'm not sure what all of these plants are, I know there is a burning bush in there somewhere.
Wow! Our first house. We are so excited.

All that is left is the grass!!!

The gas fireplace is in working condition. Be careful, Jason!
The appliances are in, they just need to inspect the stove and they will put it in place.

Staining the Trim

We have a driveway!
Here is an example of the stain color.
The workers are applying the clear coat. We would have gotten better pictures if the fumes were not so strong.

No new pictures....


Sorry, no new pictures this weekend. I forgot my camera, and when Jason and I went to visit the house - to our surprise - nothing new has happened. There is still bare drywall, no paint, no trim, no cabinets. We will take pictures during the week this week and hopefully we can show you some progress.

There is news though, the lot to the right (looking at front of house) of the house is sold and the lot to the left (looking at front of house) is beginning their framing. The dirt around our house has been leveled out. That's the update.

Since there are no new pictures of the house, I decided to post a picture of Jason and I at Niagra Falls (we went 10/1/05).
