You see that?!

Yes I super sized this picture for you all to see! That folks is work being done on the house... yes. HOUSE! We have brought in about 20 loads of dirt to get this mess of land level and set and we are on a roll! 

This photo was actually sent to us from our lovely contractor Todd. He is super excited about this... the only thing we are waiting on now is the funding of our mortgage. This WAS supposed to be funded the day of our closing but our "specialist" seems to have dropped the ball on this. Calls to her have been sent to voicemail and emails not responded to... yet. I might be making my way to the bank tomorrow morning to pop in an see what the dealio is. 

These beauts are what we will be going with for the laundry room. We were a little worried because we made a trip to Best Buy on sunday and saw there was a returned dryer, then monday we went to HHGregg and saw a returned washer! Putting puzzle pieces together I think they were the same set but I decided to do my research on these bad boys so this wasnt just a freak omen not to get them... turns out they have a A- rating from Better Homes & Gardens and a 4.4 out of 5 on over 40 reviews on Best Buy's website. My only worry was how loud a few of the reviews said the pipes ended up being when the washer was filling up with its sensor. A little bit of padding on these and it shouldnt be an issue at all.

This stainless steel beast is the LG Counter-Depth French Door Refrigerator. Since we are tucking it in to our cabinets it limited how big this guy could be without screwing up the doors being able to open at a full 90 degrees. Fun Fact: Counter depth fridges are more expensive than larger fridges. This is not a fun fact when it blows past your fridge budget but thats okay thats what you have contingency plans for!! This too got great reviews. I wasnt too impressed with the small produce drawers when I first saw it and yes I poopoo'd it a bit since my peppers would be crammed but it features LED lighting and one of the best temp controls. Better Homes & Gardens gave this a great review as well! 

I'll keep you updated on more appliance choices!
