Our Cottage by the "lake": May 2013
http://cottageoakmont.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Our Cottage by the "lake". Thursday, May 30, 2013. They are making a lot of headway with the stone work! They were applying mortar on the stone this afternoon! Looks like the only thing left to do is the porch columns. Driveway is supposed to be paved tomorrow and landscaping will begin next week sometime (bye bye gravel parking lot in front yard! Lol) The plumbers and electricians will also be by next week to hang the chandelier, install sink fixtures, etc. Our appliances were also delivered today.

Avalon Building and Blogging. Can I really care this much about flooring and faucets? Apparently, I can. Because everyone wants to know what you picked, and how much it was.). Wishing all of my fellow Ryan Bloggers who are behind me in the process a quick journey. It’s wonderful, I promise. And worth the wait, the stalking, the gritted teeth, the second-guessing and the ulcers about watery subfloors and broken windows! 14 comments on “ CLOSED! July 5, 2013. July 6, 2013. July 5, 2013.

Our Cottage by the "lake": Things are moving along!
http://cottageoakmont.blogspot.com/2013/06/things-are-moving-along.html
Our Cottage by the "lake". Tuesday, June 11, 2013. Things are moving along! Stopped by the house today and the painters were there working on staining the railing as well as painting the closets. Last week our carpet was installed along with the driveway and sidewalk! Our appliances still need to be installed as well as exterior paint and landscaping. Yesterday we called and got our home owners policy squared away. Here are some pictures of the progress! June 12, 2013 at 5:58 AM. June 12, 2013 at 10:33 AM.

http://cottageoakmont.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Our Cottage by the "lake". Wednesday, September 11, 2013. Here are some pics of the dining room! It took us a good while to find furniture that we liked. We were actually going to wait on dining room furniture for awhile but we came across this set at Levin's! Its from their new Amish Collection. We just got the curtains hung the other day. I really wanted silk curtains but they are soooo expensive! My hubby found these online and they are perfect! Saturday, September 7, 2013. Here are a few to start.

Change, even good change, takes some time to get used to.🙂 I will post the obligatory pictures of unpainted rooms with tons of piles of boxes soon. Thanks for your support, all. I appreciate it.

Because everyone wants to know what you picked, and how much it was.). 8221; she mumbled weakly…. I know now why bloggers seem to disappear as soon as they close. There is simply so much to do, and the house is such a wreck, there’s really no point in taking pictures. I’ve taken some, and will post below. If you are currently in the rainiest summer you have ever experienced, listen to your gut and TUR...

I’m beat, just beat. And we haven’t even officially moved in yet! It’s time for some Coors Light and Aleve. Ah, moving! Already wondering where to put the Christmas tree. The stairs. Definitely better than they were, but I still wish they were a bit darker. My closet. Sigh. The rest of my closet.🙂. One of the re...

30 day check in…already? | Avalon Building and Blogging

Avalon Building and Blogging. Can I really care this much about flooring and faucets? Apparently, I can. Because everyone wants to know what you picked, and how much it was.). 30 day check in…already? Someone had warned us that the drywall is like tissue paper, and I have to agree. It does seem to “bruise” fairly easily. I assume it’s the paint, and when paint ourselves (with rollers and a proper layer of paint), it will be a bit sturdier. Back door paint is streaky and needs to be redone. I thought I wa...
