Hi Everyone.
I can hardly believe I am typing this but we have a move in date to the new house. We will officially have the movers there on Thursday 9/21.
|
It will be so nice to have a home again. We have been through a lot with the contractor and the pitfalls of renovations over the past 3 1/2 months.
Our original promised move in date was going to be July 1st so my patience has been tested! Just happy that we have a move in date. We still have work to do to the house but with the garage up and the majority of the basement done, I think we can move in and work on the house while living there.
I cannot wait to get my chippy decor unpacked and start to decorate our new cottage home.
I also have a surprise to share with you this weekend. That post will be coming soon.
Have a great and wonderful new week. Hugs, Kris |
WOW!! WHAT AN EXCITING NEWS.. LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT..XOXO
ReplyDeleteYAY!!! I'm so happy for you two, I know you'll have a wonderful time getting settled in!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you have a move-in date! I know it will feel good!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Kris! So happy for you both!! xox
ReplyDeleteI love what you have done to the front already and cannot wait to see what you have done to the inside.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The outside of the home looks sweet as can be, and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us on the inside! AND....the surprise...ooooooo!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYEAH!!!! YEAH!!!!! I love the exterior of the home. It is so charming, and the landscape is lush. xo
ReplyDeleteHi! I have followed you for quite awhile, but never commented. I absolutely love your new place. The outside is so cute. I can't wait to see what will be done on the inside.
ReplyDeleteKris, best news I've heard in the last 3 weeks - congratulations! I tell ya, even though you're not moved in yet, that curbside appeal is really beautiful with what you've already accomplished! I can't wait to see the finished garage and your beautiful touches throughout the house. So happy for you, and I can guess what the surprise is......:)

How is your Mom doing?
I'm so happy for you two! Hope it will be three soon with a furry little cutie!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Yes!!!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful- yay! I just love how you've cutened up the front of your home so much. Your neighbors have to be impressed already! When we remodeled in 1996 I enjoyed it but was definitely ready for it to be done after 4 months of living with sawdust, drywall dust, plastic sheeting and too many contractors coming and going! It's all a blur now but most of all I remember being thrilled with what had been accomplished and still am! Your'e going to love your new remodeled home!
ReplyDeleteBless your heart Kris. This is great news. I know you and Terry have worked and worked to get to this point. You both will soon be in your home and loving every bit of it. Wishing you the very best. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

ReplyDeleteGood deal, Kris. We are on pins and needles here!!!..So happy for you..xxoJudy

ReplyDeleteCongrats Kris! Patience is hard to come by sometimes. You've had to be super patient with the many setbacks. So glad for you both.. it will be wonderful to be in your own space again, and I know you'll have a blast decorating the little cottage to meet your "chic cottage" standards! Love your front yard and all the flowers and pots... love the black shutters.. it's all darling and fun and you so deserve to be settled in by Christmas! Hugs.. Marilyn
ReplyDeleteYay, I'm so happy for you! Finally, after a few years of being uprooted, you finally will have a cottage to call home for many years. Can't wait for all the room reveals and your surprise this weekend!

ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!!!! So happy for you! But I hate surprises! Hurry up and tell! haha
ReplyDeleteI know you've waited a long time to announce a move in date and I'm so happy for you! Good things come to those who wait. xoxo
ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine how excited you are to get into that new house! It's like handing a blank canvas to an artist! All that chippy white stuff you have packed away is going to look great in your new home. Cant wait to see! Linda
So happy for your my Sweet Friend. You are such a tease....what is your announcement???? ;P
ReplyDeleteI get weather alerts for Inverness, Alabama and Cook County, IL via my Cubbies tracker, and y'all have had tons of rain and storms this summer, so I'm sure that's what set you back!
xo,
RJ
So exciting. Can't wait to follow along with the décor projects. So glad you will be getting in prior to the winter.
ReplyDeleteyay! So happy for you! I know you are looking forward to it. I'm not a very patient person, so I can only imagine having to wait as long as you have. I hope everything goes well with your move and it was worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteI'M SO EXCITED FOR YOU, KRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My closing on my house took 5 long months and I seriously thought in that time I was going to have a nervous breakdown!! There's nothing like being able to settle in your own sweet home for the long haul, especially after being uprooted so many times in a short time! Looking forward to watching you feather your nest!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for you, Kris!!! Looking forward to all your special touches to your new house!♥
ReplyDeleteYou will finally be unpacking and decorating!
ReplyDeleteYay! It's finally happening, I'm so happy to know that very soon you will be sleeping in your new home and unpacking your boxes and doing the decorating that you do so very well. Congratulations Kris!
ReplyDeleteYou say Peggy Sue is in her forever home. Do you think this new house will be your forever home?
ReplyDeleteYippie and congrats! It's been a long journey but you're almost there! So happy for you and Terry! Love and Hugs!

ReplyDeleteFlowerLady
More congratulations!!! I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. Enjoy and may you get nary a sliver with all of that white chippy goodness. xo
ReplyDeleteHi Kris, once again congrats on moving into your new home. Good luck with unpacking and setting everything up!
ReplyDeleteAs I'm late reading posts, I guess you're now in full decorating mode in your new cottage!
ReplyDeleteHello! Your place looks great!
ReplyDeleteCan you please let me know why you didn't install the brassy faucet?? It looked so good! What did you do with it?!
Congrats on your beautiful looking home!
PS. Your bed looks heavenly!!
Mihela
Hi Michelle,
DeleteThe brass faucet was not in working shape. It was so corroded on the inside and could not be cleared. So we had to find a new faucet that worked since we were using this piece in the bathroom. We needed it to work. It is all good now.
Thanks for your sweet comment on the bed. It is a nice sweet place to go to bed at night. Happy New Week.
Kris
Enjoy and may you get nary a sliver with all of that white chippy goodness. xo
