Pictures of the House

Here is our front door, they will paint it a different color once the stucco is finished. We really like how it looks.
They put the brick up yesterday and we can't wait to see what it will look like with the stucco. The brick seems a little dark right now but I think it will look better with the stucco. The inside is coming along and I think they will be able to paint next week. It's getting closer.......

Disney on Ice

For Valentine's Day I had bought Jackie tickets to Disney on Ice. She really enjoys these kinds of events. Cory also bought tickets for July and Cayman. Jackie and I went to California Pizza Kitchen before the show. I really like that place. The show was a lot of fun. It was really fun to see Cayman's reactions when certain Disney Characters appeared. It was worth the price of the ticket to see her face when Tinkerbell came out on the ice. Cayman is a cutie. The show was called Minnie and Mickey's Magical Journey, they visited The Lion King, Under the Sea with the Little Mermaid, Lilo and Stitch (I haven't seen that show before), and Never Never Land and Peter Pan.

Cayman dressed up like a fairy, the people behind us didn't understand why all the little kids were dressed up in costumes. Everything there was expensive, 12 dollar snow cones, 10 dollar cotton candy and lemonade. I guess some day my kids will be disappointed when I don't buy all that stuff.
Cayman watching the show, you can see a Flounder hat in the background, that came with the cotton candy.
That look on my face is pure joy, I really hadn't been sleeping.
Mickey, Minnie, and Donald
The Peter Pan part was probably the best.
It was a great time.

Dry Wall is Up

This week they put up all the dry wall. They actually did it all Friday. They also poured the cement for our back patio. We had a walk through with the Contractor and he is still saying May before it is finished. I think it will be done sooner. The cabinets should be in the house in three weeks which he said that on Monday so two weeks, and I'm thinking the painting and flooring need to be done before the cabinets get put in so we are keeping our fingers crossed it will be done some time in April. We are getting so excited. The pictures aren't great because we got there right at sunset.
Here is me walking in the front entry.

Looking down the hallway to the bedrooms.
Jackie working in the kitchen.
Our little nook and family room. Our garage, we will probably add more pictures as Jackie and I are going to Disney on Ice, Minnie and Mickey's Magical Journey. It should be fun.

Nielsen Twins!

Ryan and Amber had their twins this week. Luke and Logan and they are big babies for twins, 6 lbs 12 oz and 6 lbs 5 oz. We are so excited for the Nielsen's and it was fun to be up at the hospital and hold the babies. It is crazy to think Ryan is a Dad, we have known each other for so long and it's crazy that he is a Dad.

The twins were born at the University of Utah hospital and it is good to know there are now two more Utes in the world. I told Jackie that we will be having our babies there as well so that they are born Utes.
I never tire of seeing signs like these.
We have our half way walk through on the house on Monday. Shingles are on, windows are in, the electricity is in and so are the tubs. They did so much in a week, it's amazing. Hopefully they continue at this pace and we will be in our house in April.
Terry came out and help us put in an extra cable outlet, it is way too expensive to let the builders put extra ones in.

As we were walking through the parking lot today, we saw this car taking up two spots and if you look carefully that bumper sticker on the left of the car, says Share the Road, ummmm I guess they didn't get the message. It made us laugh.
