What Day is it?

The last week and half have been a bit hectic. Anyways I don't have any new pics of the house, but it is coming along. It now has doors and windows, and has been sheetrocked. They started the mudding and taping yesterday, should be done today.

For all interested Luke has not started walking yet. He could if wanted, as he can stand with pulling himself up. His has a couple new things that he like to do. He likes to climb up on the fire place hearth and sit cross legged and look at his books. He looks up now and then to make sure everybody is watching, he is pretty proud of himself. He has also become a dedicated pack rat like Millie. He has a strawberry box that he likes to put all his treasures in and then climb in and sit on them. I am without my watch today because he has packed it off and put it someplace. He tried to get my wallet, but I was able to wrestle that away from him.

Emmy, Seth, and Millie are doing well. They are getting ready for Youth Camp, and Junior Camp. Not sure how excited Emmy is about this, but the other two are excited. Bella is as shaggy as ever, she needs Uncle Anthony to fly out and give her a haircut. I think she is looking forward the most to moving into our house. Well that is all for today!

Just had to add this one. You don't get to see this to often, as Luke hates to sleep.

Day 5

The roof is on and they are starting to install the plumbing and electrical. Everything is going well! They even installed achitectural shingles that I wanted. There was some debate about that.

The house, Day 4

No new pictures today, but there has been progress. They have pretty much finished up the framing, and will start on the roof and windows today! They will also start the electrical and plumbing. I did a walk through last night, and everything looks good. I found a few spots in the framing that I would a have done differently, but then there is more then one way to skin a cat. All in all everything looks good, just an ex-framer tends to be picky. We have had several deer hanging out watching the proceedings, will try and get a picture of them. I think that we will definitely need to have a fence or we will be planting and replanting all our trees and flowers.

The house is going up! They are moving pretting quickly, but not fast enough for us!!! It won't be a large house as you can see, but it should be about 2500 sq ft by the time I am done. I have alot of fence to build so if anybody wants to donate time and ..... money (jk) come on out and help. I also have a 14' x 14' deck to put on the back.

Another veiw.

Foundation is in! They start framing on Monday!

They have finally broken grond on our new Home! We are very excited. More pictures to come.
