Our Home Away From Home

We thought we would share of few photos of where we've been calling "home" for the past month and half. It truly hasn't been that bad, more like a small apartment than a hotel room. With the benefits of housekeeping, and no yard work.... Please excuse our piles of stuff, and mounds of dog toys all over the floor. We've tried to stay organized with only the bare minimal of belongings we brought with us, but we seem to be collecting more stuff as the weeks go on. Greg's office is serving as our "storage unit" right now, with 4 ceiling fans, a garage door opener and a few other little items we have already purchased for the house.

The latest news on the house, we will close NO later than Monday the 21st, but it might be sooner, if the appraisal makes it the the mortgage company, but it appears that no-one knows when the VA will be there to do the appraisal or who to contact regarding the appraisal, so at this point it's just a waiting game on when the paper hits the right desk. We did our final walk-through on Friday morning, the house looks amazing. With only a few little minor touch ups of paint, a light fixture in the kitchen needs to be replaced and the breaker on the water heater was bad and causing it to trip the rest of the house. So all in all, there was very few issues to be addressed. ( keep your fingers crossed that the right person gets a hold of our appraisal- and we are able to close a lot sooner than the 21st.)

Again Excuse our mess- but this is our home for now...... T-Minus 8 days and counting !!!!!

This is our building #16- our room is actually around the other side
A look down the back side- just like apartment life

The stairs leading to a full bedroom and bathroom upstairs. That's where Sierra and I sleep each night.

Excuse our mess, but this is part of the living room- there's a murphy bed which Greg and Shelby fold out each night and hold their nightly snoring contests..... ( there's also another full bathroom around the corner as well)

This is the "one butt" kitchen. Although I think it might be just a little larger than the one in our first apartment we had in Houston. It's small, but it beats eating out every night.

This is the living room. The dogs LOVE to climb up on the back of the couch and look out the window, I think we're in trouble with all the windows we will have at the house, and there all at "dog" level......
