Lets Try This Again...

So life has been crazy. After the flood at the castle we had to have the castle put back together and decided to get premission from the owners of the castle for G and me to paint whole interior while it was carpet free. He said yes and we were dumb. I mean, excited. We set apart a Friday afternoon and a full Saturday to paint a living room, hall way, and three bedrooms. We finished sometime late Monday evening- apparently, painting an entire house is no small task. Luckily, it looks amazing!

Now there are new carpets and new tile, we have the tile guys on hold to come back out and complete the house on Monday with the rooms insurance did not cover (kitchen and enterance way). We did a pre-completed, unofficial walk through, just Gavin and I, earlier this week and it was an amazing feeling. My bare toes sunk into this carpet and I could imagine a castle filled years down the road with our stuff and kids and friends and family! A house overflowing with warmth and happiness and possibility! Tonight is the official, all work is done walk through- wonder what my mind will picture this time!

I'm aware how cheesy that sounds but its how I feel. 310 days from today that house will go from being my home to "The Krueger's Place" (I'll work around with titles, maybe Krueger's Palace? Krueger's Castle? Mission de la Krueger?). God is blessing me big time with this one! Closing on the castles is in 23 hours and 8 minutes...
