It took some time, but Jesse and I went through the house and tried to find all of the drywall nail pops/drywall issues and anything else that was covered by our 1 year construction warranty to put on our list of items to fix. Most of it was just small nail pops but we have [...]

An Utter Mess
Well...it snowed here 2 days ago and it created an UTTER MESS in our house. They didn't get the roof completely done in time (apparently it was too icy so they started framing the house behind us...i'm still not happy about that) so basically our whole 2nd floor ended up with snow and then it [...]
2nd Floor Done!!
There's so much activity on our lot now, it's amazing! As of yesterday they had the 2nd floor mostly finished. I was able to walk around upstairs and I got a little giddy about it. Right now everything looks super small, which I've heard that from a few people so far. It's an illusion, really. [...]
Um, WHAT?!
As I was driving Rylie to preschool this morning I debated about whether or not I should pop on over to our lot to see if anything was going on. Why? It was super cold out and it was snowing. I decided "I'll go over there anyways, I would like to get a picture of [...]
More Updates
I've been bad at updating recently, but I had a good reason. Jesse was home from R&R again and we had a jam packed 2 weeks of things to do. Between our Long Electric appointment, picking out our granite, celebrating Rylie's birthday.....it's been pretty exhausting but fun. I was so sad to see Jesse go [...]
We’re Well Underway!
I wasn't sure this was even going to happen this month, but on February 16th I got a message from our community rep saying they were putting up the molds for the basement walls. I rushed down there to take a picture. We've been waiting for this step. Once all this gets done and over [...]
Breaking Ground Finally!!!
AHHH! They finally broke ground on the house on February 1st!!! I was waiting anxiously to hear if they were going to start because I knew our house was next on the list, but the weather hadn't been looking that great and we had a small window of opportunity if they wanted to break ground [...]
Appraisal Is Done!
Our appraisal came in $1000 more than what we are paying!!! YES!!!! We're so happy about this. Equity is such a good thing. I've been reading so many blogs lately about appraisal issues with new construction homes but THANKFULLY we don't have any issues what so ever. The community is a lot more developed around [...]
Our Lot’s Chilly
It's been a few weeks since I've been to The Bluffs to see our lot, so today after running some errands I dropped by to snap a picture of our lot while it had snow on it. For some reason, our lot was just calling to me to be visited. Friday is our pre-construction meeting [...]
My Future Kitchen
While perusing through Inverness' Flicker Stream, I came upon a picture of what will VERY closely resemble the kitchen in our house that's going to be built. This kitchen is pretty much exactly what we'll have in terms of layout, although they have a morning room addon which we won't have, so the wall will [...]
