Updates Galore!!

Ok so where do i begin??? Last time i posted we had started on the addition to our house and I will get to more of that later but first back in the last week of July we had vacation to Branson, Mo.                          

Vacation:
So we went to Branson and took my niece and nephew Brody and Riley. We stayed at this awesome hotel with a water park and an arcade which was awesome it had all kinds of cool things to do.




 The first day we were there we went to The Track parks which is go kart parks with all kinds of different things to do besides just go karts.We also went to the Titanic Museum and it was really cool we all recommend going!  We had a blast there as well! Then that night we went to the Landing and ate with some of Corey's family then went to the Liverpool Legends show which is a tribute band to the Beatles made up by George Harrison's sister Louise which we got to meet. (We had the hook up!!!)  This was all of our favorite part of the trip! We are all huge Beatles fans!




















After our night out to see the Liverpool Legends. the next day was Silver Dollar City...be prepared to laugh at these photos lol!!






As you can see by our faces we were having a blast ...or at least some of us! lol

The next day was the day we went home but not before Joe's Crab Shack and Old Time Photos!







We had one of the best vacations ever, especially since we got to take some of our favorite little ones!

House:
Update on the house, we have been very busy working on our house so I will post pictures of what we have done on our addition and the carport that we are enclosing.








School:
So I started my Dental Assisting School this week and I have to say I love it so far, it will be tough but i know with the support of friends and family I can make it through!

Remodel : Phase 3

So we have been working on our house alot lately because we have been on vacation and that is what we did with most of our vacation was work on the  3rd phase of our house remodeling.  We finished the foundation and most of the framing for tthe addition that we are adding.  I dont have the pictures yet of the carport that we are enclosing but hopefully will have those up soon because it is almost done as well. Here are a few pictures of the process of getting started on our addition that will soo nbe a master bedroom.

This is the where we are doing our addition it was once our deck.

This is after the deck was gone and the footers were dug for the foundation.


This was when the footers were poured.


This is after the foundation after Corey blocked it.


This is when we started framing the floors.


This is when we got the plywood down for the floors.
This is the room framed up minus the trusses which will be here this week. I didnt have the whole room but this is the closet and part of the bathroom.

More to come soon!
