Sorry I disappeared! We had some gorgeous days last week. Clear blue skies...
I took some time out of packing to make my hubby some chocolate covered cherries...
He can't wait the couple weeks for them to liquify...
He loves them from the time I finish them until they are gone.
I made the whole huge jar I bought from Costco, and have another jar left to do.
I've been letting him eat the "ugly ones" haha!
We went down to Fairhaven over the weekend for a prime rib dinner at one of our favorite places...
Then watched the lighted boat parade, my camera battery died before the boats got close enough. Oh well, we always enjoy the boat parade!
We finally received the keys to the house!!! I did not receive them until late Monday afternoon.
But WE GOT THEM! The house is ours!
Looking down the driveway... see the water? No? Look a little closer...
See it now? The best view of the water is from the driveway! Haha!
Craft cottage/clubhouse/party house etc... |
The house was a mess... I kept being told they were cleaning and that is why it took so long to get the keys...
The hubby needs to tear this monstrosity down! |
Well, when I did receive the keys, I went straight to the house, and the gardener was just taking the last load... so they just needed more time to get ALL their crap out!!! I wandered around the house till Scott got there...
Faux fireplace in craft cottage |
I thought maybe I was over reacting... it was in BAD shape....
He says it won't be a problem... |
Bad enough that even the hubby said, "we can't even unload anything in the garage without cleaning first...
single garage on other side of studio |
So off to get cleaning supplies we went and began cleaning, and the hubby took the next day off work to help =).
Things are coming along, we have been cleaning, moving, etc... the movers are coming tomorrow to move the big furniture while the hubby is at work. So tomorrow will be our first night to spend the night. We have enjoyed the hottub almost every night already though!
My hands and body are sore from cleaning, moving, packing and unpacking, it will be nice when we get settled in. I did manage a trip to a couple furniture stores yesterday while Koko was getting groomed =)
Got some good ideas as to what I want for the media room, (they deliver!) will make some final decisions later in the weekend. I'll be back with some pics of the "girls" later this week!
Yeah!! I am excited for you and Scott! Ummm...what is that strange wall thing? Please let me know if you want some help this weekend!! I can't wait to see it.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Ya, they did studio/gallery showings in there, he is a painter. I am thinking of reusing the columns if Scott can save them from being destroyed. I think it would be cool to use them in the courtyard.
