House Update

It's been a while since I've documented the house progress. We are almost "in the dry" at this point, but the timber work on the front and the back has slowed things down a bit. If Winter would hold off just another week or two, we can get this baby closed in and then a blizzard can come and I'll sleep easy. 

Looking back, I realize I haven't posted anything since just the subfloor was on! I really don't like putting it all out there on the WWW, but I will enjoy looking back at these photos and want it to be part of our blog forever and ever.

Still shooting for a July move-in date. I'm shopping for light fixtures and have already purchased just about all plumbing fixtures. Lots of little decisions happening, just hoping they are all relatively easy!

  1. WOW!! That looks beautiful and overwhelming at the same time. I am not sure how you have time for all of it. Great work!
