Yet another update...

We went to see our house again today. Truthfully, we do this just about every day. We are always curious what new thing has been done. Well today we saw a little more progress... the vinyl flooring has been laid in the bathrooms, kitchen, laundry room, and entry. The counters and sinks have been put in the kitchen and master bathroom. The two cabinets that are the wrong color are no longer in the bathrooms, but the correct ones have not been installed yet. Oh, and toilets have been installed! That is always a good thing to have. :-) There are boxes in the living room that appear to have all the lighting fixtures in them. The air conditioner/heating unit has also been installed. I wonder if tomorrow the will lay some carpet. Who knows!
We are still waiting on the utility companies. I did notice today that the electric company does have little flags in the ground showing where "proposed" work is to be done. That's at least a step in the right direction. Maybe we can meet our November 26 closing. If so, that is 27 days away. But who's counting?!?

Norgan Mitchell

My nephew Evan is not only an artist, but a screenwriter and movie director as well. He has written a movie called "Norgan Mitchell". The movie stars another nephew, Nathan, the oldest Mazellan brother as "Mark". Their friend Will Allison is "Norgan". There are many other cameos in the movie... Ron, Jil and Kyle Mazellan, Lon and Jan Tuin (my parents), Pastor Steve DeNeff, James Luttrull Sr., Marion Police, and many more.

The movie premiere is this Thursday at 7:00 at the Globe Theater (IWU). It is a black tie event. I can't wait to see it. I have seen bits and pieces as it has been filmed, but this will be my first time watching it in its entirety.

If you would like to see it, you are welcome to come out Thursday evening. Just be sure to dress appropriately. :-)

Taking Shape

Can you guess what room this is?

This is what the counter top will look like.

It is fun to watch the house transform and take shape!

Tonight's Sunset

This was taken at the new home sight. The house with no roof in the foreground is my parents' house. The box just to the left is the back of our house.

By the way... our house has all the interior doors, trim and cabinets in place. I think painting might be the next step. There will be one little setback though because they switched the cabinet colors in the downstairs bathroom and the girls' bathroom. Bummer! Other than that, things look great!
