Speaking of home…

We are planning to move into ours in Austin one month from now. Just in time for our one year anniversary.

Crazy how much has happened in a year, right??

Anyway, shall we check in on Mr. Banks?

Cabinetry! 

Our kitchen is coming along. For a refresher here is a post on past progress.

And here is my post on the inspiration.

Pete is heading up to Austin on Thursday to check on ol’ Georgey Boy.

Graciella and I will be bonding without P-Daddy for the day.

I have to say it is SO STRANGE not being there to oversee every little detail like I did with Clifford, The Big Red House, but I have full faith in our contractor and I am kind of hoping the experience walking into the house in a months time will be like at the end of the ’90s version of Miracle on 34th Street.
With everything just done and perfect like in my dreams.

Anyone know what I am talking about here?

    It looks like everything is coming together! It will all be perfect when you move in, I’m sure! Can’t wait to see all of the fabulous pictures :)

    Clifford was perfect. Graciella (love that) is perfect. Clearly, you do good work. I’m sure someone you trust will be able to fulfill your wishes and you’ll have that perfect moment when you walk into Mr. Banks. (:

    I loved that house–it was perfect-the backyard that she runs out to and the cane in the corner-ooh..chills
    good luck to you sweet girl
    houses are wonderful-but without those you love-they are only a pretty house

    Oy that is 1) trustworthy of you to be able to step away and hand it over to the contractors.. and 2) YAY for waiting for a big ‘reveal’ to your new home, that is some serious fun stuff. I can’t imagine not watching it unfold, the satisfaction of having it done the second you walk in would be AMAZING!
