There's a Turkey at the Mall!

We stopped by Lucchessi's Deli to pick up some sandwiches and when we came out, we saw a giant wild turkey pecking around the parked cars!

Maybe he's doing some holiday shopping! I sneaked up next to him for a couple of pictures!






Painted!!

With a break from the rain, the exterior and the interior of the house has been painted! The roof is done on both floors!    The builders still need to put in the floors on the outside (driveway, pavement area, patio) and inside (carpet, tile, wood).

Rain Rain Go Away

We finally had a bit of a break from the storms... hopefully it stays this way for a week so the stucco can dry cure and get painted.  I really want to know what color my house is going to be!!!!  Gray, beige, dukey yellow? (HOPE NOT!!!!!!!), brown? multi-color.  I'm hoping gray, but I it's looking beige to me...

Oh! we met a neighbor across the street last week.  He seems to know the other neighbors too, so it's a good start.  I bet they can't wait until our construction is done so they don't have to see the trucks and hear the noise anymore!

We got our final closing prep letter so hopefully we'll be all done by mid January!  I've been looking at who the utility companies are in the area.  I love my house already.

And We're Still Building

The second story roof looks like it's pretty much done.  I can't tell if they put gutter guards in or not, but hopefully they clean it.  That gray stuff is stucco!   1st layer over the chicken wire.  Can't quite see inside anymore as the doors are closed and the windows sealed. Pretty exciting!
