House update!

Things have been moving really quickly on the house!  It's so awesome to see the progress because it helps make the time go by quicker!  I can't wait to get into the house because we HATE the rental we are in.  But it's only temporary and it will help us to appreciate the end result on our house!

So let's start from the beginning...

Empty lot...really exciting I know  haha

Then after we closed on the lot the most progress we got for a really long time was this...

our very own culvert!

Stupid permits took FOREVER!!!  So the lot just sat like this from April until about July.  Then this happened...

YAY!!  Finally something was going on!
So after that, things started slowly moving along...




a hole in the ground!

the long awaited building permits!
 And then things really picked up...
walk out for the fully exposed basement

support beam

walls going up

covering up the "i fart" on the trailer  haha

looking out our master bedroom window

roof going on

windows in

shingles on
interior walls are up (vaulted ceilings in the great room/ kitchen)
Along with all of this, we have the plumbing and HVAC done.  Mark is going to be doing all the electrical this week, and the siding should be going up.

That means in 2 weeks the drywall will start, along with the tile!!  Then it will really start to look like a house.  Can't wait!!  We should be right on schedule for moving in right before Christmas.  It will be the best Christmas present EVER!!
