Bye Bye House

Hello My Friends! It's been a while... Want to know what I have been going through for the past month? 

Thursday, June 13th, 2013 around 3:30 pm 

This happened...

 Yes... not just one, but TWO trees fell on our house. Thank the Lord that Charlie and I were both at work. 
There was a 20 minute freak storm that flew by Lenoir with rain and a whole lot of wind. The wind caused two tress to fall on our house and destroy it. You can walk through the house but you must watch your step due to installation and sheet rock everywhere. The house is not livable and we have relocated to the family lake house in Hickory until it is rebuilt. 

The very next day Servpro came to our house and moved all of our stuff out in one day. I should take a picture of our warehouse. We have come to the conclusion that we have too much STUFF!

Here are some more pictures of the damage...

It actually took the tree people about a week to get to our house and get the trees off. There were trees down everywhere due to this storm. But they said none were as bad as ours. 

After 8 hours... the tree is finally off!

We went to the beach with family two weeks after the trees fell. If you notice, there is a tree to the left of the house that chose to fall while we were at the beach. So now we can say THREE trees fell on our house. 

For the next year, I will keeping you updated on the rebuild of our house. No decisions have been made with insurace (hopefully we will know how much we will have to rebuild in the next two weeks). Charlie and I have decided that we want to save as much money as we can rebuilding. So I will be sharing with you our DIY tricks to making our house home again, but on a budget! Be sure to come back for weekly updates!

XOXO
