Happy Birthday to my wonderful Dad today!! I'm thankful to have grown up with a Dad who set a good example for our family in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control! And I'm excited to celebrate with the fam and Bill and Jill tonight at Salt Grass Steakhouse! =) (...I'm also already excited by the idea of celebrating his 40 years at State Farm and 70th birthday next August, Lord willing!!) Here are some pictures through the years. =)
And one at his State Farm office today!
And in other news, I wanted to give you a quick update on my new home... this catchphrase quote from Avengers Endgame popped into my head when I was thinking about my address today, and it made me VERY HAPPY, because I'm cheesy like that! lol (It's Iron Man and his daughter talking to each other, and he says he loves her a ton, then she responds saying she loves him "3000," then that is his final spoken line in the film he leaves behind for his family.)
Anyway, Rachel from Taber Homes texted yesterday to let us know that the official closing date will be October 21st... YAY!! We were originally told "somewhere around Thanksgiving or Christmas," so this is definitely sooner than expected (allowing us to decorate for Christmas - huzzah!). I'm grateful they're moving quickly and I'm happy to have a date set!
I haven't been by since last Friday, but they were done with the insulation that day. Moving right along, and it's fun to watch it take shape!
My bricks are also outside, ready to go! And the tan siding around the top three windows will become a pretty green (the color name is "gunmetal gray" but it's definitely more green).
So that's my big update for today - I get to decorate for Christmas my first year there - hooray. Hope you have a lovely Wednesday!! ❤
