Carpet, appliances and the egress window!a

I couldn't do it, I tried, but I couldn't stop myself from checking on the house today!  I know I said I was going to wait until tomorrow, but, it was so beautiful out, and I love the drive to the new house, it's so peaceful, no traffic jams, no highway... ah I can't wait for that to be my commute every day!

I was happy to see more progress too, the brick is DONE, the egress window installed, the french drain replaced, carpet was being installed while I was there (so I could only get a pic of the stairs) and my APPLIANCES!!! AHHH!!  I was so pumped to see my new stove!!!  I am going to post a pic of my current kitchen next time... and you will see why I am so freaking excited to have this beauty.  I know it's not the GE Profile line, I now wish I would have upgraded to that, BUT it is stainless, it have 5 burners, and it's convection.... omg I can't wait to cook a big old ham or roast in that baby!  I'm also so exited to have a dishwasher again, I think it will prevent 99.9% of the fights I have with my husband :)

So, without further delay, here are the pics from today!

    I'm so jealous you got your stove! They accidentally messed up our paperwork so we are still waiting for ours. Worth the wait from sure, but I want to see it. Close to the final countdown for us both! Eek!

      I'm so excited to have a real stove again, I don't cook in my apt. now a lot b/c of my stove, I think I'm going to do a post this weekend of the tour of our rental just to put things into perspective of what we sacrificed to be where we are now, I would love to take my apt. stove and take it out into a field like in the movie office space and just beat it with a baseball bat! LOL

      Thanks! I can't wait to bake cookies, and cakes, and cupcakes, and all kinds of goodies in it! I've never had convection before either so I'm excited for that!

    Rachel, would love to see apt tour!! It definitely puts things in perspective that helps with having patience throughout your build! I drive by our old place and think nothing of it except I am so glad we are out! It was a temp location to get the house!
