Counting Down The Days!

The Gatlin house went through some major changes last week.  Paradise Granite came the first of the week to put in our countertops.  It’s crazy that after all of the time trying to find them, it only took a couple of hours to get them installed.  They are just absolutely beautiful and tie everything in perfectly.  The plumbing fixtures are in and look great.  The mantel has been stained, and a few more light fixtures have gone up.  The appliances were brought in and make it look like a REAL KITCHEN! I can’t wait to cook our first meal! We now have all of the exterior door knobs in place and should have to interior knobs in any day now.  Our shutters came in and are going to look fabulous on the windows! We only have a few things left for our house to be complete.   We are beyond excited, and feel so thankful to finally have a place to call our own.

Construction Week 22

Finishing touches are starting to take place in these final weeks.  Some days are full of more exciting changes than others.  Each job is equally important to make our house come together.  We are only a few weeks away from being finished (fingers crossed) and we couldn’t be more excited.  Don and I are so thankful to all of the people who have helped us make this dream a reality.  It truly has turned out more beautiful than we could have ever imagined.  I have to thank my Mother-in-Law & Father-in-Law for welcoming us in their home for these past few months.  I know it couldn’t have been easy completely changing up your daily lives for us, but we have really enjoyed our time together under one roof!  I couldn’t have made it without your love and support going through this process.   You’ve been there to share the excitement, and provided me with comfort through the times of overwhelming stress.   We will forever be grateful for all that you’ve done for us.  We love you with all of our hearts and look forward to being just down the drive from our parents!

With the help of our family, my sweet husband worked all memorial weekend putting in an irrigation system and laying sod.  I didn’t realize just how much it would complete the house!  The yard is looking so nice, and I can’t thank the guys enough for all of their hard work!

Light fixtures are going in and they are absolutely fabulous!  All of the planning and time browsing through hundreds of lights has totally paid off!  I couldn’t love them more! I can’t wait to see the rest!
