Wow have we been busy! Today I'm going to back track just a bit! In the last few weeks we have gotten A LOT accomplished on the house (ie - MOVE IN READY!!!!) I've also taken my last boards EVER(hopefully)!!!!!
My parents were up 2 weeks ago to finally see the house! I was so excited for them to come! It was quite the whirlwind weekend, but we accomplished SO much. They got here on Friday night around midnight because Jordan's football team won their championship game and were being recognized at half time of the HS Varsity game! Go Jordan!! We Dad and Nathan were up and at it by 6:00 am. Nathan had already laid all of the backerboard so all that was left was the thin-set, tile and grout... quick and easy right? NO! We My dad, Nathan and my brother Jared worked on the tile ALL DAY/NIGHT... yes NIGHT!! We were up until 4:00 in the morning on Saturday night!! After about 4 hours of sleep Miss Bailey decided we'd had enough sleep and needed to get back to work. So they were back at it by 8:00am. Mom and I went and grabbed breakfast while they finished laying the last of the tile. After breakfast dad started on the grout and Nathan began putting the toilets back on... Oh yeah, did I mention that we didn't have toilets for ALL of Saturday and Saturday Night?! Thankfully we have a toilet downstairs as well, the only thing is there isn't any sheet rock waist down... Minor details, right? Needless to say we heard a lot of "I'M GOING TO THE BATHROOM EVERYONE!" throughout the day in hopes of not catching someone or getting caught yourself with your pants down!! :) My mom and I ran errands for the guys and provided lunch/snacks/dinner! Jordan was a big help too he helped the guys and watched Duke.
{Oh yeah, Jared wanted to bring my parents dog Duke up... Duke and Bailey - not the best of friends :( {Bailey is still a little too rambunctious for the Duker! So they had to be separated all weekend.}

| As you can see she was a 'BIG' help! |
They also brought up our new appliances! So once the tile was grouted and set, we moved the appliances all in later in the week. In the end it was a GREAT weekend! So much was accomplished and we now have a BEAUTIFUL kitchen!! Thanks family!!
The next weekend, I took my LAST BOARDS EVER (hopefully!!) Now it is just a waiting game, scores come in Dec 27th, then I apply for State Liscence (another 3-4 weeks) then apply to insurance companies to be a participating provider (another few weeks), then I open my practice!! So for now I'm taking it one step at a time, we moved in last weekend and I graduate in TWO weeks! Then my blog can become A Guy, A Doctor and a Big Dog ;) Hmmm... I like the sound of that!!
