Our lives are sooo busy....

We got another fur baby. She is a chug (pug/chihuahua) We named her Princess Abigail VonDutch. But call her Abbie.

Do you know how hard that first picture was..lol Brandon, Lola, Casey, Me, Lillie, Gracie,Patrick, Isabelle, Abby, Marissa & Jakie. I added a few pictures of Abby. How could you say no to that sweet face. lol Abby and the kitties sleeping on the couch.










Yesterday while I was walking all 4 dogs i decided to take a few pictures of the house from different places in town. Now on to the work part of the house. Mike has been working on the electrical, plumbing and partial walls this week.The next picture is Mike drilling a new drain hole. He is getting the new drains and vent stack in today. The next picture is the wiring in the kitchen, pantry and 1/2 bath.










The next picture is the starting of the new kitchen. We finally got all the cabinets after 3 trips to the place (i won't say the place but usually have great service) and decided on a stain after 2 weeks. What upset us about the cabinets was one of the sales people told us to call on a certain day when they would have a shipment of cabinets. So Mike called and the guy said they were there. So we packed up and drove all the way there (almost 2 hours with the trailer. plus the price of gas these days) But when we got there another sales person said we couldn't have any yet because they had to pull all their will calls first. Not once did they offer us to order any. I got so mad i walked out of the store and told Mike to deal with it. 10 minutes later he had what we need of what they had. We had to still go back this week and get the last few but that was no problem.
Yesterday we went to Lowe's to get plumbing supplies and stain. We also found 1 exterior door that we need. We just need 5 more. The problem with the doors are they are not average size doors. (Just like the window aren't average size.)One thing i want to point out in the kitchen is the island we are making in the center of the room. In the picture it is sitting on some of the cabinets but when it is finished it will be like a huge table with a shelf. oh and it's 10 feet long. I can't wait. So i will say what Mike always says....this house isn't gonna get done by it's self. So off to work i must go.
