Our Cottage by the "lake": May 2013
http://cottageoakmont.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Our Cottage by the "lake". Thursday, May 30, 2013. They are making a lot of headway with the stone work! They were applying mortar on the stone this afternoon! Looks like the only thing left to do is the porch columns. Driveway is supposed to be paved tomorrow and landscaping will begin next week sometime (bye bye gravel parking lot in front yard! Lol) The plumbers and electricians will also be by next week to hang the chandelier, install sink fixtures, etc. Our appliances were also delivered today.

This is a Story of a House: Reason to look forward to the new house #1
http://thisisastoryofahouse.blogspot.com/2013/09/reason-to-look-forward-to-new-house-1.html
This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Saturday, September 7, 2013. Reason to look forward to the new house #1. So this morning my two sisters were over because we're hitting the road for a trip to my grandmother's. There we were. Three fully grown women aged 24-28, crowding around an 8x10 mirror, in our home's only bathroom, and the hubs walks over and says he has to use it, and it hits me. 1: new house has three bathrooms!

The Land and The House Plan. Monday, February 17, 2014. Curtain Tutorial- The way I made my own custom curtains. I've been dreaming of this new house for right around a year now and now that we are in it, everything is coming together. Now, it's not coming together as fast as I would like but I'm so excited to continue making this house my home. I've rambled a few times about making curtains and I decided that I wanted to post a tutorial on how I made them. Is it perfect? Decide on a fabric:. Whatever yo...

Our Cottage by the "lake". Tuesday, June 11, 2013. Things are moving along! Stopped by the house today and the painters were there working on staining the railing as well as painting the closets. Last week our carpet was installed along with the driveway and sidewalk! Our appliances still need to be installed as well as exterior paint and landscaping. Yesterday we called and got our home owners policy squared away. Here are some pictures of the progress! June 12, 2013 at 5:58 AM. June 12, 2013 at 10:33 AM.

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Tuesday, September 10, 2013. Neighborhood Creeping and Our Lot. So I had to travel this morning for work and decided on my way home to swing by the lot and see if anything new was happening. We're not expecting anything, but hey, you never know! They broke ground on Aug 31 (I think) and have the whole thing framed! Here's our lot with our neighbor's progress in the background:. September 10, 2013 at 5:56 PM. It is about ...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Friday, September 6, 2013. Week 1: A Summary. Sorry if I seem scattered but this is going so fast! A week ago, we had just signed our purchase agreement, outlining some of our concepts for things we thought we would want in the house. Yesterday, after about a week of intense document collection (thank God for paperless banking! Oh, and we'd be living there before the end of December! Now, that's pressure. We drove around...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Monday, September 2, 2013. As I sit here procrastinating an evening run, reading as many Ryan homebuilding blogs I can get my fingers on, and marveling at the amazing stack of paperwork I'm surrounded by, I thought maybe it's time I jumped on the Ryan Homes building process bandwagon. And so, welcome to our journey! Hubs and I marking our territory! September 6, 2013 at 7:44 PM. So jealous of your lot size! The hubs and ...
