Lots of Drywall

Dear Friends & Family,

We finally got some updated pictures!  It's not much, but at least we're getting somewhere.  We now have drywall...a lot of drywall!  :) 


Welcome to our neighborhood, Brook Park!

Slow Moving

Dear Friends and Family,

So it's been a while since my last update, so I thought I would write a little something.  We haven't heard much, the progress has been a little slow.  We did find out that we can close the first week of August!  That was exciting news.  It's a little later than we hoped for, but at least we have a date and something to look forward to. 




We're packing up on the 7th of July and staying with Ryan until our final departure on the 17th.  If you're in town please make plans to see us before then.  We're going to try to have a little get together at Ryan's that Friday or Saturday night.

Love,

Shannon

Little Bit of Progress

Dear Friends & Family,

The house is definitely moving along.  We're hoping to know what day we can close by this weekend.  Check out all the new pics our awesome realtor sent us!  :)

Spare Bedroom (where many of you will be sleeping!!)
We should be getting another update tomorrow, with more pictures, and maybe even a video clip!  The weather has been beautiful here in Cheyenne the last couple days, so I'm hoping it's even better in Bellevue.

Thanks for stopping in!

Love,

Shannon

Little Colorado Detour

Dear Friends & Family,

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind.  We've been busy with moving, house hunting, work, school, and all the other things that go along with life.  So, we decided to take a little detour from it all to celebrate...celebrate a very special birthday.  Now where I come from birthdays are a big deal.  It's the one day of the year where it should be all about you.  So this weekend was all about him.  We celebrated 31 years of his life together.  We napped in a hammock, drank wine, rode horses, and just relaxed.


.  

So if you have never visited Estes Park or Rocky Mountain National Park, it's a must do!  This was his first trip, my second.  I wish we could have spent more time in the mountains, but I'm grateful for the time we had.  I'm also grateful the weather held out long enough for us to ride horses, something else he'd never done.


Bear Lake...it was still pretty frozen!
So Beautiful.

Horseback Riding
First time riding...did it like a pro!  

I hope he enjoyed his birthday weekend as much I did!  It was different for us, but something we definitely want to do again.  Big thanks to Janie & Oliver at the Dripping Springs Resort for providing us with the best experience ever...it wouldn't have been the same without them and their awesome B&B.  



I know this post wasn't about our move or a new house or Nebraska at all, but I hope you enjoyed it just the same.  More pictures of the progress to come really soon, so keep checking back!

Much love,

Shannon



P.S.  Happy birthday to Burdette...I know I've said it half a dozen times over the last week, but I hope we have a million more birthdays to celebrate together.  :)
