an update {long overdue}

Since tomorrow is moving day, I figured that a house update is long overdue. My apologies for the lack of posts for 2 months!!! but there has been a lot going on in.

I don't have a lot of time (I'm supposed to be packing boxes right now) so this is a post will lots of photos and few words.



master bathroom



Did you notice a distinct lack of kitchen??! Um yeah. We'll be 'camping' in our house for a while.

Truth be told, I don't care. I'm We're just so darn happy to move in to our house already. Wish us luck with the move tomorrow.

framing :: they took the wall down

Last week, the contractors took the wall down that separates the new part of the house from the original house structure.



the view from the front door

Just a few months ago, it looked like this.

I believe that the contractor is 99% finished with the framing. John has a few extra things for him to do around the house, mainly leveling the floors. Other things on the To Do list are:

• electrical + plumbing
• hang doors and windows
• insulation + sheet rock
• wood flooring throughout

And oh yeah... we're on a bit of a timeline, with 57 days to go.

ch-ch-ch check it

On Tuesday, the contractor started framing out the new front entrance and the additional space in the back of the house. I went by the house on Wednesday and again today, because I couldn't stay away. Can you blame me?


This is how the back of the house is coming along.

And here is the front entrance.

75 days to go.

the foundation is done

On Friday, the front of our house looked like this.





Today it looks like this.





The back looked like this.





And now it looks like this.





Let the framing begin!!
