Ladybugs are lucky, what a beautiful house and I'm sure you'll make it a home filled with love 💜♑😇🙏

Congratulations on your new home! I can not even imagine the excitement of being able to build your own home! Becoming a homeowner is exciting in itself! Instead of paying rent you are investing in yourself and your family. I'm disabled but with hardwork, I was able to finally buy my first home back in 2010. I recently made a major change by selling my house, moving over 900 miles away and buying another house. Yes, it's an older home but I paid for it in cash. For the first time in my 50+ years, I'm debt free. Which I know a lot people strive for. It is truly a blessing! Wishing you & your family continued blessings in your beautiful new 🏠 🙏❤!

I’m so happy for you! Just a note about the king\queen bed decision. You said you heard that by getting a king size it is more work to vacuum the mattress and getting duvet covers. You can actually get regular bedspreads and comforters for king size, exactly as you do the Queen size bedding. I normally clean my mattress once a month anyways, but we have a Queen in our guest room and it gets the exact same cleaning. I just wanted to let you know, in case you didn’t choose a larger bed for those reasons. I actually love the king size and the extra room is great! Your whole family can all get cozy in bed and cuddle on cold winter nights too! Lol 🥰

The purple paint color in your daughters room is gorgeous! It looks great with the flooring too!

I love her room! My favorite color is purple.

I would consider the king bed. They are really worth it. Congratulations on your beautiful house.

LG washer without the agitator works with the king bedding. The dryer fits a lot in it too. We shop for furniture at oak express. I have bought from value city, Ashley, and oak express. Value city and Ashley did not hold up at all

Congratulations on your new home. Anybody can have a house the family makes it a home. I'm ready to build another house. I really enjoyed our build. Can't wait to see your decorated home! ❤

Awwww. Lady bugs are supposed to be good luck. Congratulations on your beautiful home..

I love your ‘unfinished home’ tour. So spacious and the natural lighting pouring in from the windows is amazing. It makes my very soul happy to see how excited you are about it. All the sacrifices, the blood, sweat and tears plus saving $$ for so long was/is worth it. Y’all deserve every inch of it to make beautiful memories with your family! ♥️

Super cool about the lady bugs. They represent good luck. Someone nearby may have purchased them from a garden shop and released them into their garden. They eat aphids and protect other plants. I hope you can remove them without killing them.

Nice flooring. Love how light and bright it is. Lazy Boy has beautiful furniture, and the quality is awesome. Love the fans on the porch. Love the purple room. Had a purple room in the past. Love your craft room and the sink that you had installed. Hope you had a fantastic Easter. Hope you are able to move during the summer. So exciting.

Beautiful home! Congratulations to you and your family.

Absolutely gorgeous. So happy for you all. Those aren’t lady bugs they are called Asian beetle bugs.. They look identical. I live in Massachusetts, we had them for two years. They are very dirty, they poop everywhere. It’s so hard to get rid of them. They live the sun and heat.

It's really coming along!! U made some great choices w/colors & lite fixtures. I'm excited to see the island & cabinets in ur kitchen. I'm so very happy for u & ur young family. This needs to be the place y'all can call home for decades to come.❤

It’s looking beautiful! Congratulations on your forever home ❤

Thank you Katelyn for the tour of your new family home!

Ooohhh, the stamped concrete patio looks like slate! I love it so much!

Your home sure is coming along!! It's going to be so beautiful!! You're a Very Lucky young lady. 👍😁👍🤗🤗🤗💕💕

You won't regret getting a king sz. bed, and it could work against the wall where the barn door is going, opening up the window space for a seating area and giving you views from the bed to two window walls. There is room on the opposite wall for dresser/TV, etc. There are some good furniture buys at Wayfair, Amazon, even Walmart, but be careful of the actual retailer and double-check descriptions. For case goods, you can't beat all pine from IKEA. Most folks also have a decent brick and mortar furniture store within an hour's drive where you can feel, test and see the product and work with actual color swatches.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW HOME. HOW EXCITING FOR YOUR FAMILY. A NEW JOURNEY YOU WILL ENJOY AND LEARN FROM..

The color , you chose is beautiful! Love the floor color, gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your stunning new home with us! It is so exciting that you are getting a new home! The beams are amazing, love them! Your craft room, will be wonderful, it is huge! So happy for you!❤️❤️

Our table from Ashley peeled to they replaced it once and it did it again then they would not replace it the second time. I would go with a higher end for a table you use a lot. Real wood. For sure your home is beautiful

We got an amazing table from Costco. Everyone compliments it and it is still beautiful even after 4 years and 7 people using it.

This home is so beautiful. You and your family are so blessed and deserving❤❤❤❤

So many decisions 😱 but you have great tastes. Can't wait to see the next phase. 🙏🏻 for beautiful spring days going into summer as you share crafting ideas. Congratulations 👏

Looking great!!!! Get a King size bed. You will have more room. Congrats!!!! Can't wait to see the finished house.

So happy for you and your family and what a stunning home this is going to be and share whatever you are comfortable sharing with us. The details are so beautiful and the space is phenomenal boy do I love space 😊 thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home 🏠 see you soon have a wonderful week and lovely day 💗💛🦋💙🌈💜🫂

After having helped clean for a king size owner, I'll never have a king size bed in my house. For those out there who love their king, bless you all but from my experience, no. My reasons are 1. most rooms will feel uncomfortably tight once the other furniture is in place. Put out some boxes or tape out your furniture on the floor and walls and try walking around everything. 2. the cost of the bed frame is nothing compared to the cost and weight of a comfortable King mattress and if you decide to flip it gets some friends to help. 3. the cost of the comforter, blankets, pillows, shams, bedspread not to mention decent linen is really expensive (look it up and shop around and show you husband because no one believes it's going to be all that much more until they have to get all new bedding) 4. vacuuming under a king is a real pain unless you like getting down on your hands and knees just to reach the middle 5. for laundering, a repair guy told me that it's better to have a good extra heavy duty washer and dryer because regular new machines just aren't really designed for kings. Washing drying and folding will take a better part of a day. 6.And lastly making the bed alone will take you far longer than you'll believe especially if you have more than a sheet and a comforter.

My Mom and Dad had a king. There was no room to walk. Bed was almost touching wall. Could barely get in on one side. Cleaning under it was hard. Bed, dresser and chest of drawers -room was packed. I have a queen. Plenty of walking room Around bed.

Go with the king bed. It’s super luxurious.

Congratulations to you and your family on your new home. It's beautiful.

I love them floors and fixtures ! I can't wait till it's finished. Yall going to love it !! So happy for yall !

Oak express has Amish furniture if you ask. Our dining room table is Amish made and it is stunning. Even the chairs have held up beautifully

So exciting for u! I'd have the builder put down some plywood in that attic space for storage! Keep the updates coming!

I go to a local,smaller furniture store. Costs more, but it's QUALITY, real wood and lasts for years. Everything looks beautiful! I'm DROOLING over your craft room!

It is looking so beautiful! How exciting! I cannot wait to see the finished home (especially the craft room)! Love all the storage areas too!

Katelyn, your home is so beautiful! Styrofoam beams - genius! Your craft room is to die for! So excited for you and your family!❤❤❤

Congratulations on your new home!! May God bless you and your family with love, good health and prosperity. Enjoy!!

Thank you so much for sharing the tour of your new gorgeous home with us!! It is amazing! The paint colors are perfect! And WOW! the floor I love the color! I must admit I buy 99% of my furniture secondhand..I have been up cycling furniture on the side for other’s & myself for many years! I really love vintage and mid century style. It seems to have been built good. I also love to jazz up antique furniture. But idk too much about new furniture stores. A lot of people I know buy from IKEA & Wayfair. Good luck & have fun!! ❤❤

The fire alarm might just be dusty. Blasting it w canned air could be an easy thing to try. ❤Love the house!!!!

I also wanted to tell you that a king size bed is so nice. Just get a split box. We got an adjustable California king and we love it.

Thank you for the tour. It’s beautiful !!!

Congratulations!❤🎉 I am so happy for you & your family! It is so exciting! I can't wait to see your craft room!😊❤ The flooring is beautiful! We get lady bugs in our house in the spring, too. Your bedroom & bathroom are gorgeous! What do you think about putting your king bed on the barn door wall? Since your husband would like to have a king bed. My husband and I have a king bed. We love it. ❤️ I like to shop for furniture @ Rooms to Go. We've had our wood dining room table for 20 years. I've stained it a darker color. We love it.❤ Your patio is gorgeous!❤ The play house is adorable!🥰 I love, love your craftroom vanity as well!❤ I've never heard of styrofoam beams before. So neat! I'm so excited for you and your family! Can't wait to see your next video!❤ I hope y'all are in your home by summer break!🙏❤️🤞

The playhouse area is adorable.

EA. Claire in Madison County Virginia has the most beautiful hand crafted furniture. You should look them up for your dining room table.

Once you have furniture, curtains, rugs etc, that echoing will all go away 😅 congrats on everything! ❤

Congratulations on the new house. Ethan Allen has beautiful furniture. I bought a dining room table from Ashley's, and within a year, the color faded, and Ashley wouldn't fix it.

Wow. Looks amazing. Happy for you!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard that ladybugs bring good luck! You're in for a wonderful summer of moving in and enjoying your new home!

Your house is beautiful. I’m so happy for you.❤😃

So excited for you!LOVE the purple room. I had one (lavender) as a kid. Now I have a lavender guest room!

I can't wait to see the house when it's finished it's looking so lovey.

We got some of our furniture from IKEA. Big Lots has some nice stuff. It depends on where you live. Costco and Sam's Club have a few, nice things. We also shopped at a lot of local places. Holiday sales are a great idea 💡👍.

Oh my goodness your house is gorgeous! Congratulations on getting your dream home, I’m so jealous & happy for you!

Congratulations on your new home! I’m hoping sometime in the future you will show outside decor in some of your videos

Beautiful!! You are Blessed!

Congratulations on your beautiful new home.

You have nice big space in this house. Congratulations! I find those nooks with fairy doors kind of creepy since I watched horror movies growing up where tiny scary things hiding behind those doors. I do not want to spook you out. It would be a lot better if you have it finished before you put out your Christmas decor. For furniture I might go with either Pottery Barn and Ashley's furniture with mix and match of something from way fair.

I can’t wait to see your home when it’s finished! I know it’s going too be magazine worthy.... It’s going to be Stunning and I know you’re excited and I’m excited for you and your family!!!

Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉 on your new home 🏡 make so many memories and new traditions 🎉❤🎉

Oh my goodness. It looks like it is going to be gorgeous!

Congratulations for your beautiful home! Thank you for sharing with us! I love all of your choices. Explore local furniture stores, instead of chains like Ashley. You might find better quality there.

I am sooo excited for you! Getting space inside and outside is such a dream come true, I know ❤

I put those floors in!! I love them!! The color is great!! ❤

Ahhh, I'm so excited for you and your family!! Y'all will be moving in before we know it.

WOW!!! So happy for your family. Looks like a great house to raise your beautiful girls up in. So nice that you have such handy family members to help out. Your family has worked hard for this!!! I sometimes get really good bargains at the thrift stores. Would be such a fun house to tour when your done.❤❤❤

House is coming along great! Please look up Asian Lady Beetle because I think that's what you have. I had them in my house. They bite! Don't step on them as they release a stinky substance. I sprayed lemon essential oil all around the door jams where they were coming in. You might need a pro if you have many of them once yr house is finished. Oh, they are lighter orangy in color and have more black spots than a real ladybug.

I have heard that ladybugs are considered a symbol of good luck!

Congratulations...It is sooo beautiful...exciting..can not wait to see it totally finished and decorated!!!
