Almost There...

One more week...it has gone by so fast! We have been waiting since late April for our house to be done and it will be ready for us to move in next weekend. We close the 27th. Yay! They still have a few finishing touches to do...like stain the garage doors and shutters but that shouldn't take too long. The movers are picking up our furniture in Florida on Tuesday and should arrive to Austin anytime from the 27th - 31st.

It has actually been a blessing our house is just now getting ready. If it was ready earlier, we would have already had the nursery set up, maybe even painted the walls with the boys' names. How heartbreaking, not that we aren't heartbroken already, that would have been to "undo" the nursery. When we do have children again, the nursery will be ready and waiting. God is good and His timing is perfect always. Now we have a project to keep us, mainly me, occupied. There will be so much to do - unpacking, decorating, etc.

Here is our house...almost done!
Around the neighborhood where we are living now, there are TONS of deer everywhere. They just sit and chill in people's front yards or open fields. Spencer and I were driving around the other day and we saw a deer family hanging out in the shade. They were so cute I had to take a picture.

    The house is beautiful! WOW and those deer - that is crazy. I am so excited for you two to begin your new life in your new home. And someday the sound of little footsteps will be everywhere and the twins will ALWAYS be a special part of your hearts, your home and your life. Keep the pictures coming as we see how the inside unfolds- Love Peg

  4. Umm, I want the room above the porch. I want a king size bed and if you could bring the deer to the front yard of the new house I think I will be good to go. :)
