Another Road view


This road is about 200 yards from the house and if you drive it you can see our house from it


THE HOUSE


Its really starting to come along now they guys are working even weekends I suspect next time we go they will have the stucco color up on the house and we will know what color it will be.


A view towards the house



This view is the road down to the house. you can see they have the stucco up but have not colored it yet.. its coming along. hopefully next weekend we will find out which color we have on the house.. the choices are pale olive green, Tan, a sandlewood or a creamy beige white.. Im hoping for one of the darker colors but it will be what it will be. Yes that's are house in the distance : D






the pool area..



We have a community pool which is about 100 yards from our house. it also has a jacuzzi and wash off stations and is gated with key guard .








Another photo of the surrounding road near the house


Just another photo of the roadway near the new house.

Hey Everyone


Brett says Hi from an upstairs bedroom window, the below window is one of the garage windows of which there are two.

Getting ready to paint the stucco soon




The windows are all sealed up and there getting ready to add color to the house. We dont know what color it will be yet the colors vary thruout the neighborhood from a muddy green to a warm brown , or tan or a cream white Im hoping by this weekend when we go we will get a pleasant surprise.. Recently we found out our yard will be much bigger then we had thought at 50 feet long and 17 and half feet wide its a nice little size for us : D










One of our first purchases were these lovely 5 foot high pictures to hang on the staircase wall going upstairs. Hope you like them























A view from the road of house




This is a view from the roadway you can see our home its the second one in its an older photo but Brett and I so enjoyed this view of it thought we would share.

The drive to and from the house is very scenic as well with horse property over to the right and a lovely view in either direction.



Garage view


Our garage view is just as pretty as our window views though our windows more so as they all face the wide open space of looking out over the valley and moutains in the distance


The Neighborhood park


The park had its opening ceremony recently nestled in the neighborhood about 300 yards from our house the park has lots of green for Truman to explore as well as a playground and tennis courts .


OUR HOME



The house is really starting to come together , It's amazing how fast they are getting it done Share with us the excitment of watching it all come together thru photos we have taken along the way.
