Almost done

Things with the house have been coming along great! Last week, I got the kitchen and living room painted and I laid the tile for the backsplash of my stove.

 

Last week we discovered that something was wrong with our well. We called in Alaska well drilling and had them take a look. They said they may be able to fix the existing well but we could run into a couple problems: 1. We could spend lots of money trying to fix this one and still end of having to have a new one drilled 2. This well isn't up to code and if we ever wanted to sell the house we would need to drill another one anyway. A well should be at least 100 feet away from the septic. As much as we hated forkin out $7,400 for a new well,  we knew we needed to. Tuesday they started drilling and by Friday we had running water! 

I'm not going to lie, I was pretty nervous when we started opening valves to the different areas of the house. Andrew had pretty much done all the plumbing himself. I am pleased to say that everything works and no pipes went spewing lol. We had a couple small leaks which were easily fixed by tightening up the fitting. 

Now all that is left is trim, hanging ceiling fans, and flooring which goes in this weekend and on July 2nd! 

If all stays on track we could be moving July 4th weekend!!! Now we just have to decide if we want to spend the weekend moving or if we want to enjoy the weekend camping.
