Looks Like a House Now

Dear Friends & Family,

I know I mentioned before that we have been very lucky with our realtor, but we are also very lucky with our builder.  So far everyone has been extremely kind and helpful and gone above and beyond to help us.  Yesterday, we got a surprise email update with a couple of photos from our builder.  I was more than happy to get an update and was even more excited to see the progress.  I was happy that it was no longer just a plot of cement...it is now a house, our house.

I must say I was surprised at how far they had come since our last visit.  Nebraska has had a lot of rain and I know it's put a tiny delay on the construction.  Either way I'm happy with the progress.

It's getting harder and harder to be patient now.  I can't wait for more updates and I definitely can't wait until we get to move in and everyone starts to visit us.  And yes I mean everyone...I'm expecting lots of visitors during the first year.  I know I keep saying how excited I am, but it doesn't mean I won't miss all the friends we've made in Cheyenne.  Cheyenne will always hold a very special place in my heart.

Check back soon for more updates!

Love,

Shannon :)

Awesome New House

Dear Friends & Family,

So Burdette and I had a trip planned to Omaha for the 18th of May, but if you know me well at all, you know I get anxious and excited and can't wait for anything, so to Omaha we went on the 6th of May.  We gave our agent practically no notice and left on a Friday and came back on Sunday.  It's about a 7 hour drive, so we spent all day Saturday driving around looking at house after house and then we found this...

Now this little plot may not look like much...yet!!  :)  This is going to be our 3 bedroom, 2 bath, perfect first home together, that we are sooo excited about!  What really sold us on this house was the location.  If you're familiar with the area, we are right off 25th Street between 370 and Cornhusker Rd.  It's got perfect highway access and is just minutes from the base. And the BEST part is our backyard view...

No backyard neighbors to look at every day. Just peace and quiet. There is a little creek on the other side of the trees. It's so perfect for us. Here are some more pictures of us just being excited about our new house together!



Awesome walk out basement!

As you can tell the wind decided to follow us to Nebraska this time! 

I promise I will try to keep up with this Blog.  I have been slacking a little bit since my first post, but there are plenty more to come!  Luckily, we have an awesome Real Estate Agent who will send more pics to keep us posted on the progress.

Thanks for visiting!!

Love,

Shannon

New Town New Blog

Dear Friends and Family,

I decided to start up this little blog to give you all updates on the move and the house and all the changes. Facebook is getting a little old and I figured this would be a good way to keep you all posted on what is going on.

Burdette and I are moving to Omaha in July, so there are a lot of things going on. We're buying a house in Bellevue and it's currently being built. I'm super excited to watch the progress and I thought maybe some of you would like a little peek. I'll post pictures and updates soon.

Hope you enjoy it a little bit!!

Love,

Shannon
