Final Shouse Update

The time has finally come- Dan and Theresa's shouse is done!! It's been done for a few weeks now, but I just made it over there to take some pictures of the finished product. Ok, it's not completely finished- there are a few baseboards that still need to be put on, the blinds are ordered and are on their way, and there will be a concrete pad and sidewalk leading up to the front door, but it's close enough to being done and I haven't put an update up in awhile. 

This may not be the best picture of the house, but it shows the grass that we planted on the hill down to the road a few weekends ago. The rest of the yard is seeded, so we are just waiting on the grass to start popping up there too. 

Here's the first thing you see when you walk in. It's a beautiful picture of a tree near their old house with a wonderful quote on it. Side note-I'm not sure why the walls look lime greenish, I swear they are tan (after all, I helped paint them)!

The living room. Don't mind the Illini blanket, those blinds can't come soon enough. 

And here's the kitchen. The countertop near the stove still needs fixed, as well as a backing put up on the island, but it is looking good!

 The bathroom with an accent wall. 

The pantry, office, and laundry room. Talk about utilizing space efficiently!

And finally, the garage. Yes, it is as big as all the rooms in the rest of their house combined. But have you seen how much this room can hold!

It's hard to believe that the shouse is finally built and they are out of their old house. We all worked our butts off to get this thing done. There were tears, laughs, fights, teamwork, smiles. But most of all, there was love. Love for each other, love for the family, love for this house and love for what is to come. Let's not rush into things too quickly, though. I'm ready to relax a few years before construction on their real house begins!
