Porches and Lighting

So we drove by the house today - they are currently putting up drywall. Yay!

But since all those guys were working I didn't want to harrass them by taking interior pictures, so I stuck with pictures of the front porch and screened in porch - which they've added railings to... and which will later be stained.


I'm ready for them to put the shutters up on the house... but that probably won't be done until a bit later.
Can't you just see me sitting her drinking my morning coffee and reading the paper on the weekends? Sigh. It will be much prettier once the landscape comes in (as opposed to the pile of mud that is our current yard)!

We've also done our last interior selection appointment - and picked out our lighting. I'm super excited about the lighting... but most excited that Chad let me get the chandelier that I ADORED in the first house we almost bought (it was our interior designer's former home so she was able to point out the same one for me).

Here it is.... isn't it beautiful?

I just love it. I think it will look great with our dining furniture - which is Chad's grandmother's.

They also had the same chandelier in a giant version...If we had a massive dining room I would have begged for it, but it probably would have looked a little oversized for that room.

So there you have it. That's the latest. We've heard end of March for move-in... I'm counting the days!
