See you later

Today Josh and I say I do and proceed to live happily ever after in our castle surrounded by an alligator filled moat.

I plan to update the blog with actual facts when I return from our honeymoon.

Thanks to Moms

Our Mom's have done a lot to help us these past months. Besides providing housing and food at their houses for us, they've also helped with that for our house.

Also Mrs. Reames has helped clean, paint trim, give ideas, and make our house a better place.

Mom has washed lots of my dishes and linens that have been in my attic "hope-chest." She has been available pretty much anytime to help me with whatever I want. She has brought meals to the house, run errands and taught me that a good home doesn't have to be perfectly finished.

We are so glad for our Moms.

Sister-in-laws

Thanks to my sister-in-law and future sister-in-laws who have spent time helping get our house looking and smelling MUCH better.

Thanks to brothers

My brothers have been a great help for our house. They have driven trucks to here and there with this and that. They have dug holes for water, hung drywall, built walls, lent tools, helped me shop for big things, put up beautiful tile work, carried big things, and so much more. (and they still are helping)

I know I owe them a couple of nice meals. Now that my stove is hooked up, I can almost start repaying them.

Thanks to Dads

Dad has worked diligently in helping us get our house ready. He has hung cabinets, built countertops, run plumbing, helped with supply shopping, made city water hook-up possible and countless other things. 

There is no way I could ever say thanks enough.

Josh's Dad has spent hours right here getting wires sorted out, pulled in, fixed up, and safe. He has made my kitchen FULL of power, our closet lighted, our backdoor motion lit and the hob-koble messes into a safe electrical system.

Without our Dad's we never could have gotten this done.

This is all the same place!

DIY

Do It Yourself guide for flipping your fridge doors.

If you have a fridge that opens the wrong way

take the doors off

switch this thingy from this side

to this side

switch this thingy on the door

over here, it only fits one way!

change this holder on the top. it also fits only one way

there should be a dust plug for that side, but it is hard to get out and breaks easily ;)
I recommend using a very thin flat  thing to help get it out

Then when you replace all the screws it should be like this

Now it is ready to move into my kitchen
