Continued Life on Primo

Hello faithful blog viewers. If you are reading this, YOU are definitely faithful!! I know I haven't posted anything since April however life has continued on Primo!! We have settled into our new wonderful home and are LOVING it!!!!!! It is so hard to believe that just one year ago we were just starting this process. NOW, we have been living in our beautiful home for over 5 months!! The only thing that we have not completed is the landscaping. We decided we wanted to enjoy the summer and not be overwhelmed with having to plant grass. We may begin to start that process this fall. We will see how motivated we get!! So faithful viewers, I will post more pictures of the completed house soon. Thanks again for staying!!

Our newest addition.


As you have already seen, we have add one more thing to our new house. A new Sony LCD tv and stand. There had been many comments regarding our little 18 inch tv. I loved my little 18 inch tv but it did look a little out of place in our new front room. So we splurged and bought a 46" Sony Bravia. It is great!! We can actually see the TV now. Amazing!!

Banister complete!!!!



















We finally don't have a death trap in our dining room. Hooray!! Damon got the banister up today. It looks GREAT! It also makes me breath a little easier. I was little concerned someone may fall down the stairwell before we got it up. I also got all the base painted yesterday and all the nicks from the move covered. That was a full days job. Hopefully if the weather would ever cooperate we will pour our curbing and driveway. It will be nice to get that in so maybe there will not be so much dirt. It doesn't hurt to dream!!!!!!!!!!

Ok so it has been 11 days since my last post. That is how many days I have lived without internet, phone or cable. Unbelievable I know but I survived. The worst part was not having internet. Very difficult:>> Well, we moved in. Unfortunately I have NO pictures of the move. It happened so fast that I think I just spun around in a circle in disbelief!! We had so many great friends and family helping that we moved the whole house in about 3 hours. Now when I say moved I mean just put in the house. It has taken me 11days to find everything and try and put it away, where I can find it. We still have boxes full of misc. items in the basement. They may stay there for awhile. As you can see from the pictures, we are definitely living in our new home. And as you can see there are a few things left to be finished but very livable. Living here is still so unreal. It is so hard to believe this beautiful place is OUR's for a very long time. We also have signed all the papers for the sell of our old house. It was definitely bitter sweet. We will miss our little blue house. When we drive by it, I want to cry. We had lots of great memories in that home. However, we plan on making LOTS of new great memories in our new home. More posts to come.

7 days!!

Ok so I am apologizing because I don't have pictures to post again today. You will just have to believe me when I say things are coming along. We got all our appliances today. They are GREAT. They also look terrific in the kitchen and mud room. All the lights, speakers and fans are in. Thanks to my dad!! I have been slowing moving things to the house but tomorrow we will be completely moving in. Unfortunately I will not be posting for a number of days as glitch #3 hit when Bresnan has not shown up to connect our phone, internet or cable. So our house will be very quite for the next several days. I will take pictures of the move and post when I am able to reconnect!!!!

8 days

Wow only 8 days! That thought is very scary. More progress today. Grout got sealed; the kitchen faucet is in; all the baseboard should be finished tonight; vacuumed all the carpets and all the kitchen cabinets; all the interior doors got hung. I think that is about it. That is definitely plenty. We have been burning the candle at both ends. More to come tomorrow!!!

9 days and counting!


Hardwood in hall and dining area.

Hardwood down hall.


Our bathroom tile.



The kids bathroom.




The carpenter may not make it to the end. Do you know of any good replacement carpenters?





Now if you didn't read yesterday's blog you may be confused because we have went from 11 days to 9. And yes I can count. The day we will close on our current house has got moved up a day so we have lost one full day of work. So there is only 9 days left. Today was a very productive day. YAY!! The hardwood floor is done. It is great. We love it. My dad was able to help to that sped things up. Also the plumber returned and finished the hot water heater. YAY for hot water. He also put in a few of our bathroom fixtures. So we will have at least one bathroom when we move in. We also got alot of things cleaned. It is amazing all the dust that accumulates during the building process. Oh so much more to do!!!!
