http://thisisastoryofahouse.blogspot.com/2013/09/reason-to-look-forward-to-new-house-1.html
This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Saturday, September 7, 2013. Reason to look forward to the new house #1. So this morning my two sisters were over because we're hitting the road for a trip to my grandmother's. There we were. Three fully grown women aged 24-28, crowding around an 8x10 mirror, in our home's only bathroom, and the hubs walks over and says he has to use it, and it hits me. 1: new house has three bathrooms!

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Thursday, September 12, 2013. So I'm just writing this up quickly while I'm stuck at the library not doing my project (good to see I haven't given up my procrastination skills when I decided to go back to grad school). We had our selections appointment today! We struggled mightily on floors! I'll post pictures soon but I'm pretty sure I hate them. Our meeting with the electrical/AV guy was super painless. I've read a...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Tuesday, September 10, 2013. Neighborhood Creeping and Our Lot. So I had to travel this morning for work and decided on my way home to swing by the lot and see if anything new was happening. We're not expecting anything, but hey, you never know! They broke ground on Aug 31 (I think) and have the whole thing framed! Here's our lot with our neighbor's progress in the background:. September 10, 2013 at 5:56 PM. It is about ...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Friday, September 6, 2013. Week 1: A Summary. Sorry if I seem scattered but this is going so fast! A week ago, we had just signed our purchase agreement, outlining some of our concepts for things we thought we would want in the house. Yesterday, after about a week of intense document collection (thank God for paperless banking! Oh, and we'd be living there before the end of December! Now, that's pressure. We drove around...

http://thisisastoryofahouse.blogspot.com/2013/09/diving-in.html
This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Monday, September 2, 2013. As I sit here procrastinating an evening run, reading as many Ryan homebuilding blogs I can get my fingers on, and marveling at the amazing stack of paperwork I'm surrounded by, I thought maybe it's time I jumped on the Ryan Homes building process bandwagon. And so, welcome to our journey! Hubs and I marking our territory! September 6, 2013 at 7:44 PM. So jealous of your lot size! The hubs and ...

This is a Story of a House. A Boy, A Girl, A Dog, and their Journey Building a Home. Monday, September 30, 2013. Hurry, hurry. waiting.okay, now build! So I have been super remiss in posting any updates but it's because I've been de-compressing from all the crazy intensity of the initial decisions we had to make. From signing the papers on August 30, to the selections on September 12, it was just a non-stop whirlwind of decisions and craziness. And then, everything just kind of stopped. The hubs and I ha...
