It cost $2500 to move it. Now-- remember that I got it for free. But then my husbands boss told him that the company would pay for it as a business expense. He told him that "is one of the perks of the company". His company is really like a family. His boss is so great!!!!! Not only does he pay for our families health insurance, he is paying hte $4000 deductable for me to have the baby. He also GAVE my in-laws $5,000 last year to buy a new car (My FIL used to work with them until he went on dialysis 5 years ago- they ahve to drive 85 miles round trip 3 times a week).

I think that Eric is gonna run electricity to it this weekend. I hope so at least. It's gonna kill me for it to be there and me not be able to use it yet!!

As soon as all of the workers are gone I will take pics for y'all!! I just don't want them thinking I am taking pics of them with their shirts off!!!!!

Where does your husband work?? MY husband needs a new job!!!

[AdrisMommy]

LOL!!!! He is a superintendent for a construction company. It's private construction, like for the city, and loval town-- BIG multi-million $$ jobs!!!. He DOES work really hard and is what we call a Lazy workaholic. For instance, we went out of town last weekend with 3 other families. I left on Thursday morning, and Eric was supposed to come meet us on Thirsday night and take Friday off. Well, one of the hospitals in Alexandria (where he works out of) had a sewer problem and it was backing up INTO the hospital. So he had to work Friday. He asked if I was mad and I told him no cause I know he did it for Adri and me. His boss remembers things like that. He missed the first day of his vacation to work. He was the only one for the company who could do it, he is kinda their sewer expert (I know-- gross) But it comes with lots of perks!!!!!!

Ha Ha!!!! You don't wanna come to enjoy the land.... you wanna move your craft stuff into my bow House, huh??? I told Eric that I wanted 3 kids, I bet that is the only way I will 3!!!

There is about 20 acres. us, my M&FIL, and Grandma IL, live on about 3 acres and the rest is open land. It is all my Grandma In Laws, but will pass to my husband and his sister and an uncle.

I eventually want to turn it into a boutique with children's clothing. That is my dream and it would not have any overhead!!! I have seen them in smaller buildings!


I am just so excited to get my new kitchen table out of my entryway to my house and use my front door again!!

No it does-- I am kinda scared to get close to it!! I might have to get up my courage and take some close up pics tomorrow after I clean it out!

[ldelzer]

That is freakin' awesome! I LOVE IT!!!!!

That has so much potential. You can obsess all you want and paint the walls, decorate here and there, have TOO MUCH CRAFT STUFF (is that possible?). I dig it.

Congrats on your new pad. I'm happy for you
