Progress

We have been in the new house almost two weeks now and slowly things are coming together. There is still a ton of painting to do and the back yard to landscape, but at least the front yard looks nice! Lucky for us, that was included by the builder. Otherwise, we would still be living in a dirt pit.

There is a lot of activity going on in the new neighborhood, two new houses are going up on the street behind us and it is amazing how quickly they are taking shape! The boys and I enjoy watching the construction vehicles and the progress they are making daily. It will be fun to see the transformation over the next few years as there are another 170+ houses that will be built just West of us as the neighborhood expands. Next Summer, we will have the pool, clubhouse & playground to enjoy. I can't wait to take the boys!

We had the back yard fenced on Friday--yippee!! This was huge for us because we had been walking the dog several times a day out of necessity, something we were definitely not used to. Adding a double stroller to the mix was not fun. Oh, and did I mention it has been raining non-stop?

This is the only type of fence our HOA will allow...hopefully it will contain our crazy Macey! Getting used to the HOA thing will definitely take some time.

The side yard is actually where we have the most room. There is supposed to be another house built directly behind us and that person will have five yards converging on their lot. Glad we are on a corner lot!
