Progress

This is what has been done in the past few days. The shingles should be put on by tomorrow.

Our house is in a cul de sac

I took 2 pictures from the car to show you what the rest of the cul de sac looks like. Well, at least the side that was in front of my car...

Do the builders work on Saturdays?

So, this was my question-"Do the builders work on Saturdays?" Apparently they DO. Take a look!

LOOK

I guess the builders are trying to move fast, since today and yesterday were the only two days that were predicted this week to have no rain. They have really made progress. Steve and I went to dinner tonight and were talking about how nice it will be to be able to host our families (when we move in our house), instead of us them hosting us.

The wood and foundation

I drove by today and took a look. I took this picture from my camera phone, because I didn't have my camera with me. I also took the picture from inside the car! I will have better pictures later. Anyway, some wood has been delivered, and the concrete has been poured for the foundation! Exciting!!!

I drove by the lot today because yesterday and today it did not rain. This is the first time in a long time it hasn't rained. They have started and these are the pics I took.

The ball is rolling...

Ok, so today I drove by the lot to see if any progress had been made. Unfortunately the weather has been absolutely CRAZY in Northern Alabama the last few weeks. The builders got the permit to build the house last week, and were supposed to start building, but it had rained the week before, then began raining again last week, and is scheduled to rain more this week... Anyway, they have marked off a few things with poles on the lot. The builders also moved the big huge trash bin that was on our lot, and looks like they dropped off some supplies to start.

Lighting

So, last week we had our lighting center appointment at Richard's Lighting. It went well. We picked out fans, light kits, lights for the front of the house, lights for the back of the house, lights for the bedrooms, lights for the bathrooms, and even a door bell!!
