We had to wait for this little guy to cross the road .
there's actually been quite a bit of progress in the last week.
Our plumbing is roughed in.
Our heating and cooling guy has been busy.
Our electrician has the boxes installed. He and his crew will be out next week to wire up the house.
Our garage floor is poured
and some sheetrock has been hung.
Even our shingles are on.
Our shingles deserve a close up. I went a little crazy with the shingle color. I'm hoping it turns out ok.
So a lot has been done though Dave and I feel like it's moving slowly. We are ready to put in some actual work (remind me I wrote that in a few weeks when I'm complaining of being tired). Our builder has estimated that he will have the house turned over to us in 3 weeks, so we'll be complaining, I mean busy, in no time :)
While the builders have been busy, Dave and I have also been working hard (just not manual labor). We purchased all of the materials for the decking last week. That was quite the process as each store in town had different sales and I'm a fanatic about getting a deal. I'm guessing that building the decks will be one of our first projects to tackle. I'll make sure to let you all know when this is going to happen since I'm sure you'll all be there to help.
I also purchased countertops for the kitchen and master bath; choose tile for the kitchen, sunroom, laundry room, and bathroom; and choose wood flooring for everywhere else. We met with the guy who is building our cabinets today and we figured out the layout for those. And we spent all day today measuring for the flooring and trim and cleaning up the entire house. Phew.
Only a million more things to tackle.
