The insulation has been sprayed in:




And the siding is up:

The project for this weekend is to get this sad excuse for a yard looking a little more presentable. The plan is to remove a few trees and getting it all leveled out so it can be mowed.

We were worried about removing this tree because its so close to our carport, but luckily only 3 paving stones and a small strip of concrete were damaged when he pulled it over.

A real roof with shingles and everything!! Yay! They've also started adding the furring strips for the siding.



And let's not forget the windows :)

There has been a lot going on inside the house. Important things... but hard to photograph things.

Like plumbing and bathtubs:


Electricity:
Air conditioning:


And today our shingles were delivered :)

Sam spent a few hours spray painting the inside our fake dormer today. We wanted it to be black on the inside so that you wouldn't be able to see the framing once the window was in.


Poor guy. The things he does for me :)

This picture was supposed to be of the doormers... but check out Liam. Bet you can't guess what he's doing :) All boy I tell ya!



Plumbing is starting to show up.

All of the framing is complete.


And this is my FAVORITE part... it came out so much better than I imagined! Its the doormer opened up over our kitchen. A picture really can't do it justice.

This is the view from the dining room.

The roof is almost covered. Just missing a few spots in the front.

They've started framing. I can't believe how fast it all went up. Its so fun to walk around and see the rooms taking shape.


Zoe made a snack for her and Liam and they ate it in her bedroom. So cute :)
