More framing...

This stage has been moving pretty quickly.  We've stopped by the site several times this week and it's fun to see the changes.  Once the siding is up, we will need to have some paint samples ready to test.  Luckily, we've had some help choosing colors :)  Read more for additional pics!

Stairs, island, and windows

This is our second time to the house this week...The stairs have been built and we can now see where the kitchen island is going to be.  Also, the interior doorways and window headers are in place.  The house is starting to look smaller!  Standing in the future living/dining room, it was kind of hard to imagine how we're going to fit a couch and table/chairs...  And our downstairs half-bath is soo tiny.  But it's still exciting to see things happening!  I'm sure we'll figure it out when it's time.

And We're Back!


Finally worked out the FFE issues with the City on April 5th.  The plans did not have to be resubmitted, but they are requesting an extra tent survey that shows we are not violating the McMansion rules.  There were a couple guys working on the site today.  I chatted with John, one of the builder's field supervisors.  The cables are in place and he thinks they should be pouring by the middle of next week.  Read more for additional photos.
