We're Moved In!!

We have moved in!!  We started moving the week after the wedding and had most everything in and settled the first of November. Is the house finished? No. But the inside is livable and we are living in it. My brother still needs to grout the master bath/shower, kitchen back splash, and dog shower. The cabinet man still needs to install cabinets pulls and my appliance garage. The glass guy has to cut glass for master shower and mirrors for bathrooms. Yes. I put my makeup on each morning using a makeup mirror. Our dresser has a mirror and there's a hanging mirror in the living room. I haven't seen my entire body in a month. Oh well, it will all get done.

The outside still needs A LOT of work!!!!  It too will get done. It's actually been nice to be living without rent/house payment the last two months. 

Everything is unpacked and we have enjoyed having a place large enough for friends to come hang out. We had a cookout for Kev's birthday this weekend and getting ready to have his family over for Thanksgiving Friday. 

I've not taken many pictures because everything isn't done but will post the finished product when I can. Lord knows I can't say when. Every time I'm told a day, it gets changed. They are coming this week and they don't. I can't get mad. My dad needs to do jobs that supply him with a pay check.  I'm content just being able to live there. I just remind myself how fornunate I am to be able to build my own house. It has definitely been a family ordeal, a stressful one at times, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Floating the Caddo River

We floated the Caddo River with some friends Saturday. The scenery was beautiful and the water was flowing nicely. It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
