On Wednesday, July 27th, they started framing our main level walls. I never made it out there that day because it was Porter's birthday and we were celebrating all day, but while I baked Porter's cake Nick took Porter out there for a little while and sent me this picture...
How fun! This is the front of our house. The bump out you see is our entry way/front door.
Back of the house and a view of the walkout part of the basement.
On Thursday they continued framing and got all of the walls up! We ended up going out there that night, with a picnic, and eating dinner with Nick's parents in our future dining room. It was a gorgeous night and we didn't want to leave.
The excavators were also there working that day and filled in and leveled all the dirt behind our house and also in the front. Before there was a big {man made} mound of dirt in the front of our house so that the cement trucks could drive up there and access the house as the needed too. It was hard to envision just what the front of the house was going to look like with all the dirt there so I was really excited when I got out there last night and saw they had moved it all!
Our excavators are great. I couldn't be more pleased with them, and their work.
Nick also got more of our fence done.
We got sandwiches from a local sandwich shop. It was delicious. Here is Porter and Papa Ed.
Weston was all smiles, too!
Porter loved running all around the house. Here he is peering out of one of our living room windows.
It is looking amazing Cor :)
