House Progress and Home Study Update

So building a house is work, but it's also fun. And I know that sometimes my complaining about packing, and picking things out, and everything else that goes along with it makes me sound ungrateful. But y'all, I promise I'm extremely grateful. We've been so blessed, and the way things haved worked out have been amazing.

We actually have a contract on our current home. The buyers have been awesome to work with, and we're set to close on June 27th. Our new house should be finished right before that, and the timing works out perfectly. So while the next few weeks are guaranteed to be stressful, in the midst of that I know we are extremely blessed.

Here's a couple pics of the latest progress. The cabinets are set to go in and be stained this weekend and early next week. After that it's the countertops and fixtures, and we’re almost done!

Yes, the fireplace is off-center. I have no clue why, but it's not fixable at this point so I'll suppress my OCD and deal.

And that's it for the house today. 

Before I go, I have a couple of prayer requests. First, our home study, which should've been done last week at the latest, still isn't done, and our contact at the home study agency isn't very prompt at getting back to me. As of right now our home study is expired, and while that's not a huge issue at the moment, we do need it back. Second, we're right at the six week mark for our FBI fingerprints. We really need them to come back approved very soon. And as always thanks for your prayers.
