Almost there.......

Today I went over to clean the cabinets etc. in the laundry room, clean the excess grout etc. out of our shower and wax/dust mop the floors so we could not only get them clean, but see where there is glue that needs to be cleaned off. I got the laundry room and shower finished, as well as cleaning the stainless steel appliances. I also did the floors; but they were quite dusty (even after being swept) so after a while (and 2 cloth mop pads) I was just pushing dust around. But they are clean! I will go back with Tilex and clean the shower and 2 clean mop pads and clean up the dusties!

John was working on the shingling of the front and so I got some pictures in as I was working!

Our house numbers...

The carpet...

Laundry room.



The epoxy floor in the garage. It has dots in it!


The roll of carpet for the two bedrooms (which will be installed tomorrow--John bartered with the installer and he is trading work on his Landcruiser for the installation!) and the nice shiny floor I just cleaned!

John working on the shingles...this is where it previously said Hi in paint!


Here is a shot of the back deck. It's finished!

This is Jacob yesterday at Longs. For Christmas he received a Target GC from Auntie Vaden and Uncle Arlen and we picked up this cart thingy for him. It's great! It covers the whole cart (I didn't have the back part up) and it has shoulder straps for him. Also it has pockets etc. for toys...so he has things to play with and doesn't get all germy from the cart! Thank you Auntie Vaden and Uncle Arlen!

Here is a little video of our washer and dryer! Ha!

Love the washer and dryer "talking to you." It does sound like a video game! The house is looking great! Love the new carpet, and the shingles in front look good. Wow Jen, looks like you will be living in your new house next week???!!

You're welcome! That looks to be a good cart attachment to keep Jacob safe and busy while you shop. Glad you found it. Indeed, you're washer/dryer unit does sound like a video game -- what fun! The house looks grand; have fun moving in. Hugs, Auntie Vaden

The house looks great! I think if you keep pushing buttons on the washer and dryer I'm just sure you'll be able to play at least Tetris on them.
