New house pictures

We have our pre-dry wall meeting with Construction on Wednesday - so the next step is insulation and tape and floating the dry wall. We cannot wait to see how our house will look next week.

Birthdays and Bashes

This past weekend we celebrated Shae's birthday and Dash's graduation. The festitivites included a trip to College Station, steaks bigger than our plates, and great times with family.

On Saturday, we traveled to Montgomery, Texas to go antique shopping and then rented jetskis on Lake Conroe. Not only did we come home with suburns, but a wrought iron cookbook stand and an antique plant stand for our new house. For the record, Dash did a great job planning the birthday weekend.

Our house (as of Friday August 11)

Growing up

3 1/2 months......35 pounds. Here are some pics of our handsome boy, Cooper.

And our Princess Maddy...

Stick by stick

Our house is going up! It is hard to believe it is only one and a half months until Moving Day!

Bridgeland, Texas

Check this out - bridgelandtexas.com - a master planned community only about 5 miles from where our house is being built. Basically, Bridgeland is a smaller Woodlands, with villages, town centers, trails, lakes, and much more! More importantly - a Bark Park (for our furbabies) and an 18 hole disc golf course. Hopefully this will help out our property value over the next few years!

Beginnings

Upon this foundation, our new home will be built - a modest 3 bedroom that will be filled to the brim with many, many memories - Our first Christmas tree, Supper Club with our best friends, hours in the yard gardening, Easter egg hunts in the backyard (in a few more years), and much more. We pray that we will be able to use this house to serve our Lord - reach out to our neighbors and friends - for years to come.


To help you get your bearings - the garage is in the front, the living room and kitchen are in the back left, and the bedrooms and bathrooms are all on the right side. Note: The workers are not included in this floor plan.
