Well, all the papers have been signed, so I guess we really should start packing.

We're really happy with the house. Like it a lot.

Will put a hex on the next person who comes to see this house so they'll buy it. We had 4 people in 4 days come visit over the past few days, so that's a good thing.

It's a Yard!

The lot has been pretty much leveled off. We have a retaining wall down most of the north side (stops in the backyard near the odd-shaped corner. It's so nice to have a level side yard! They also shaped up the hill in the back. This will be a fun yard!

It looks like all that is really left is the front porch and a bunch of cleanup on the inside. We'll see if they stick to the Aug 16th finish date.

Pantry

we are extremely close to being done. Here's my pantry - shelves and doors and everything! Just little things here and there still to be done inside. Still to be done are the driveway, front porch, and back patio. No word on whether we'll get a retaining wall on the north side. I am doubtful.

Oh, and the cabinets. Turns out the cabinetmaker gave them the wrong samples and don't even have shaker-style cabinets. So, what we have is what we're getting. But we got them for free! The builder is pretty annoyed with them.

Now if someone would just come buy our house... we're investigating bridge loans and such this week. yuck.
