Flood

You know what is great?
(say that super sarcastic to yourself)

Living in your home for 3 days and having it flood.
With SEWER water.

Yep.  That's great.
(again- sarcastic)



It could have been worse.
But still.
It was crappy.
(pun intended!)

A Few Items

Here's a glimpse of a couple things that is making our house a home:

I LOVE these bar stools.  I think I might be the only one who does.
They are so practical.  I can just wipe them clean after the little hooligans eat and they even add a little "industrial" feel to the room.  

My beautiful and talented sister made my shower curtain.  Love the chevron!

This niche (that's what they call it in the plans) is giving me a headache.  No joke.  I hate feeling forced to decorate a certain space.  Not really sure if it will stay like this.  I've re-done it 15 times already.  And a shout out to The Hubs and the beautiful clock he MADE for me!  Love him.

Extra Can Lights

Before they insulated the attic, The Hubs ran some wire and made note of where it was (measured) so that we could install more can lights after closing.  The builder wanted to charge us one hundred bucks a pop! I'm sorry, but that is ridiculous.  We bought 9 more cans and it only cost us $203!  That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!  My dad was there to assist and they had them finished in no time.

It was a little frustrating watching insulation falling from the ceiling like snow, but what do ya do?  

I just realized I don't have any "after" pics of the lights...  they will come soon.
