Week Four {Day Five & the Weekend} ...

I am having all sorts of issues with blogger. It won't let me update the blog, and once I do it doesn't say it's updated? So, once again, I am way behind! I haven't been out to the house since Sunday {family in town this week}, so these pictures are a little outdated {which is good... means things are moving right along}! We are headed out to the house this evening, with my sister, to have our family pictures taken on our land. So far it's a beautiful day here, and actually pretty cool, so I am hoping it stays that way! Hard to belive we are already in week five. I am getting so anxious for the house to be done, and for us to be in our own home and space again, but I really am enjoying the building process. Here are some pictures from the weekend, updated pictures coming soon!





 Roof trusses going up! I believe they finished these yesterday.

We have our stairs! I was so excited about this!!

Standing in diningroom looking down hallway and into the main enterance.


Main level half bath.


Future pantry {kind of hard to see here... the back framing is also two closets}.


Mudroom! Very excited for this {with a dog, two boys and a husband...!} because we didn't have one at our old house!


Trusses.


Nick got more done on our fence! This will be painted white.

Week Four {Days One thru Four} ...

This week was a crazy week! With Porter being sick I wasn't able to get out to the house until Thursday evening. My mom and grandparents came in and watched the boys while Nick and I went and picked out the tile for our house {which was so much fun!} and then we took them out to the house so that my grandpa and grandma could see it for the first time. I was SO excited to see the progress since I hadn't been there all week, and to show my grandparents for the first time.

This week so far they:

  • Finished framing the main level walls 
  • Dug the well 
  • Framed the second level floor 
  • Started framing the second level walls 
  • Started on the garage framing
  • Continued with the excavation of our land 
I will let the pictures do the rest of the talking...
