Question about same elevation as neighbor?
Was anyone else originally told you couldn't have this color siding or brick because of a neighbor? What about elevation? Across the street they are building my elevation! I thought the 5 houses around you couldn't be the same? Did I misunderstand? I couldn't even have the siding I wanted for this reason nonetheless a whole house? Can anyone explain if they know the rules!!!

Walkthrough tomorrow and closing Friday!!!
I can't believe it is finally here! We stopped by yesterday and landscaping looked beautiful and driveway was finished. I still can't believe it is going to be my house! I can't wait! We really have not been in the house for awhile since it's always locked when we go and the office is closed. So I cant wait to see the inside and start decorating! I will post pictures as soon as I get some stuff done! Hopefully next week :) I should be VERY busy all week, with all of the moving, decorating, kodys therapies, and kody starting new summer school! Good luck everyone who is closing if I am not on!!!

Prayers needed for Kody@!!
Please pray for Kody! We are sitting at Medexpress waiting for x-rays. He was trying to scoot out if bed and fell. We think he may have fractured the same knee that the children's institute already fractured in December. It was already weak. I am sick right now! At the new house he will have bed rails, insurance is paying for a bed and it will be delivered on move in day. Please pray he us okay! He cannot handle any more setbacks!
Yayyyy!
RH is installing all 6 of our ceiling fans! We are just paying them to do it because hubby said it will take him forever to do it! This was great news! They are doing are driveway this week! We paid extra to have it extended from a one car to a 2 1/2 wide all the way up and then at the top instead of a 2 car wide it will be 3. Since it is a side entry! So nervous to see what it looks like be we need all that room so we are not constantly moving cars around! They are grading our property next week! We are getting sooooo close and I am sooooo excited! Since I have not been doing a countdown I will sum up a few reasons in here that I am really looking forward too!! Having a garage we can actually park in and open doors....the last one was so small we couldn't even use! Having a driveway that isn't steep! I hating trying to load Kody in the car while sliding down the driveway in the snow! SCARY! Having the garage on the same level as the kitchen! I hated carrying groceries up the steps especially with kodys stairlift in the way! So many bathrooms! I shared a bath with the kids and Kodys bath chair took up most of the bathtub, so I barely had any room to even move! It sure will be nice to have a seat and room in my huge shower! CLOSETS ....we barely had any! That says it all! I have so many more but I will cut it short now and put my top 3 # 3 having a brand new house and knowing it is all yours and every memory in the house is all yours! And how hard we worked to get there!!! #2 Having a neighborhood where we can just let our kids go out and play, while we sit on the porch, and where we can just walk our dog in peace! I am so excited for this! #1 To carry kody around a very minimal amount! To just hop in the car without carrying him down steps! Life is going to be a dream! I have dreamed of this day for Kody and our family for almost 10 years and it is now happening in 2 weeks!!!

2 1/2 more weeks!
Went to Home Depot today and bought so much stuff! Bought 21 faux wood blinds, new garbage disposal and stainless sink and faucet ( hubby hates all the stuff ryan gives you), some handheld shower heads, and 10 dimmer switches for ceiling fans and a few lights. Then finished off with going to furniture store to add a few more items and confirm delivery! I feel exhausted with all of this shopping and making sure I have everything! I have stuff coming in the mail that I order online daily! I was at the storage unit yesterday rearranging everything and repacking since we just threw tons of stuff in there when we were selling our house! It wasn't fun! Now I m packing again since we have lived with my mom for 4 months...I am exhausted an just want to be in my NEW house!! I have been sneaking in the window every night! So FUN!!! We have never been locked out like everyone else! Now the garage door is installed with opener and keypad and we got the code :)

House really coming along! I know...I have been missing lately! I have been hiring movers, shopping for last minute furniture, therapy, just busy! Things have been smooth with the house and Ryan homes is really trying to accommodate the month late closing! We lost our painters with the 3 different closing dates so we just paid them what we were paying our painters due to the delay. So we were very happy with them trying to show they are sorry they put us out! So happy with my selections since I changed them 15 times!

#29 So many closets!
I cannot wait for all of the closet space! Our old house, we had 1200 square feet and when selling 2 people didn't buy it because the lack of closet space! My daughter didn't even have a closet! In our downstairs we only had 1! There was just no where for coats, shoes, or clothes! That's why my daughter needs to furniture....lol, she busted out ALL of her drawers from over stuffing them! Hehe! Needless to say, I can't wait for MORE closets!!!

Countdown begins! #30 Living in a community!
I have lived in the city my whole life and have dreamed of raising my kids in a community! I can't even imagine what it's going to be like for the kids to play outside without worrying about tons of cars or lots of random people! Kody can drive his power chair outside and Kassi can ride her bike! We were never able to do these things! Taking walks and walking the dog! I just can't wait!! In a new community I am hoping it will be easy for us to make new friends as well. I know with all these weekly visits, I met most of the neighbors and they all seem nice!
