Hey, it's Christine. For those of you that don't know me I am married to the love of my life, Kent and we have three beautiful daughters, two that still live at home. Sierra is 16 and JoAnne is 5. Last year we started the paperwork to build our new home. We are finally ready to move some dirt! It's been a long rocky road up to this point and we are so ready to start the construction. I love working with everyone at Newrock! They have been great. Eric had to deal with me from day one! He had great suggestions and was a huge help while I changed the floor plan all around. Lisa did an awesome job with the floor plan and making all the little changes I asked for. Clint bombarded me with a ton of options and had to deal with my indecisiveness. He constantly keeps me updated on what is going on! I am one of those people that needs to know what is happening even if nothing is happening! I decided to keep this blog so my husband can keep up with what is going on during the construction while he is currently working in Afghanistan and for my friends and family. Hope you guys like it!

Okay, it was so rude of me not to list the one person who put us in touch with Newrock and who volunteered to hold my hand through this whole process - my husbands good friend and realtor - Randy Peck! Randy has been "holding my hand" from day one, always answers my calls and if for some reason he doesn't know the answer to one of my million questions, he finds out for me. Thanks again Randy for always being there (oh, I'm still waiting for our dinner date.)

MOVE IN DATE!

I do have a tentative move in date but I am trying to keep it secret, just in case.  There were a few delays in getting some of the material to the house which has pushed everything back a bit.  Also, you never know how the final inspection will go.  Let's just say it might be a VERY Merry Christmas! 

Tile - November 22



Tile work is starting today!  The master bathroom looks like it will probably take a few days to get done but it is going to be gorgeous! 

Cabinets - November 17








Wow, the cabinets were delivered and installed today.  They are beautiful.  The guys did an awesome job! 

Lighting - November 10




I am really loving the recessed lighting we decided on.  Having lights on has given the house a whole new look and just makes me love my color choices even more!

Paint - November 7




We finally have paint on the walls and trim.  The doors and trim look black but they are actually a dark brown color called Weather Vane.  I love it!  The wall color is Bagel.  I wasn't sure when the wall color went on if I was really loving it but it is growing on me and once some hard surfaces get put in I think it will look great.
