Day 101: The Set Up for Greater Things to Come

So, here we are...still plugging along on the house. These last couple of weeks the house has been getting its internal parts worked on like plumbing, electric, air, and cable. They also have now poured more concrete for the back patio, porch, and step out of the house. Next week hopefully comes the windows and doors.

It's been a long time since I signed the contract back in August...but this building part has been going great!  They have said they think everything will be done by Mid July...we'll see :)

The Laundry Room
The Kitchen



Daisy's new bedroom--like Harry Potter.

Master Bath sink and bathtub

Master Bath shower

Daisy REALLY wanted to mark in the cement and it just happened that she is at Outdoor Ed and the Guys are in DC...so I had to make marks for everyone.

Daisy really wanted to put her footprints in. She said I should do it for her.

I added them on both sides.

The laundry exterior door. I am getting a Dutch door here! So I can set my pies to cool off of the ledge...just like they always do in the cartoons!

The back porch...now it will be a quite, shady sitting spot.

Just shows how tall the new house is compared to the garage!

Our life in 700 square feet means that we end up sprawling out the front door and out into the yard.

Shopped for carpet this last week....gonna choose green...now have to find one that we can afford and is still soft and cozy.

This area rug caught my eye for the new living room...

Walking through the House!

Day 85: They have finished the initial phase of framing! Next up is some plumbing and electrical work this week.  Here are some views of the house. My father-in-law took these with his super awesome camera :) His pics make it look cavernous! (It is a lot of space :)!)
