Update

Hey everyone!

We appreciate you following our blog and we hope you are as excited as we are for this upcoming year! Below are some updated photos of the house. We got word that they are supposed to be framing on Monday! They are moving right along!

Wedding colors are a huge stepping stone that Eddie and I need to get settled out. We are pretty unsure of what we want to see. We do know that my favorite flower-the sunflower-will be included in the bouquet on our special day! Otherwise, we are still unsure of the final colors.

We have decided that we will be having our reception at the new Ohio Union in downtown Columbus! It is a facility that is still in contruction (our house and reception site!) and will be completed in April 2010. We have put a hold on August 28, 2010 but we have not locked the date. Most likely-we will lock in with them in a couple weeks! How exciting!

So as of right now we have- 1. The date 2. The reception hall 3._____so needless to say-we need to get moving! :)

For those of you who have not met our kids-there are a couple pictures below. Meet the Vilt Family...

I love them so much!

Laying the foundation

Here is our foundation of our house. They dug the hole on Tuesday and by Friday our full house was laid. Pretty cool. You can tell where the crawl space will be, garage, kitchen, master bedroom, etc...

Sorry this is so short! More to come later!

It's official

We met with our superintendent today for Trinity Homes. He was wonderful. He assured us that he was going to be working around the clock on our house in order to get in completed. We drove by the house tonight in hopes the huge bulldozer would be there. It unfortunately was not, but this huge mount of gravel was there. Also our home is all staked out. It gave us a great vision of how our house would be plotted. This process is so exciting!
We also got to meet with the design center today. We picked our exterior and interior options for the house. Our outside will be a brown tan color with dark gray shutters and a red door...I know it doesn't sound like it goes together, but it for sure looked wonderful at the design center.
Below is a picture of the house tonight. It was pretty dark, but you get the drift...

We will keep you posted with pictures all throughout the process.


Love Eddie & D.

Breaking Ground

Eddie and I are building a house in Westerville, Ohio. Our location is very close to Hoover Dam where there are lots of bike paths and wonderful parks! We are looking forward to moving in mid December and will be able to have our first christmas in our new house.

My mom and dad came down to Columbus today and we took some funny pics at our house site...Enjoy!

A fun day of Shopping!

For those who do not know, Edd's brother is getting married on May 15th. Eddie and I are both going to be in the wedding, so yesterday the boys went to look at suits, and the girls went to look at bridesmaids dresses.
Lauren (Mike's fiance) set up an appointment for us girls (Kristen, Lauren and I) at David's Bridal. We had a blast! It was such a fun day of trying on dresses and I believe we found the dress that Lauren liked Kristen and I in. She is going to have the rest of her girls try them on and vote. I absolutely love the dress and-believe it or not-the dress is one that you could re-wear!
After trying on bridesmaids dresses-I had picked two gowns that I wanted to try on for myself. Needless to say-I fell in love with the first one I tried on! I am going to take my mom and sister with me next week and let them see me in it. If anything, I found out the style of dress that I like!
The boys started out at Macy's and due to the Labor Day sale-they have found great suits for only about $20 more than what a tux rental would be...pretty cool and then they get to keep the suit. Very impressive. Once us girls got back from trying on dresses-the boys (Eddie, Cheeks, and Mike) were ansy to get out of Macys due to them being there for 3 hours. The Vilts are power shoppers and don't like to stay in one specific store for more than 10 minutes. (Insert Edd) Vilts get in and get out, thats just what we do.

Overrall, it was a very productive day for the girls and the guys!

Eddie and I are planning on checking out ideas for our center pieces today-so I will keep you posted!

Love
Edd & D.
