Who put the Roof on..Who Who December 30, 2013

4 guys from JR Roofing came out today and put the roof on.   Took about 6 hours.  Each guy started in a corner.

Can't wait for the Cypress Creek Hemlock siding to be put on.

Garage door was put on also last week.

Electrical and HVAC - December 19, 2013

Both started on Wednesday when we did the walk through with the electrician. When we went back on Friday so my hubby could do the wiring for the surround sound, they said they would be done that day.  We will go back by on Monday to see the end result. It was a warm rainy day today-got up in the low 50's.

Partial Kitchen Layout - December 19, 2013

Rough draft outline of the back side of the kitchen.  Counters, Frig and Stove.  I can't wait to see my cabinets in place!  My dilemma is what color to paint the walls!  I want contrast for my cream cabinets.  We still have to pick out the color of the granite.

More inside pictures December 15, 2013

Looking a little like a home?!?!?! Come on in and take a seat. 

There was some extra tar paper that we cut to size to mimic our furniture.  This way we could place our floor outlets easier.

Inside Framing December 15, 2013

Dining room looking into the Kitchen and Laundry room.  Garage in the front.

Laundry room was measured wrong!  We have to remove the closet that I was going to be putting my vacuum and cleaning supplies in. UGH

Great room looking into the kitchen.  Those structures are the end caps to our island.  (pic below is what it will look like but the color will match our cabinets)
**Love my corner Pantry!

Framing Complete with Concerns December 13, 2013

Framing complete.

We have some concerns on the inside regarding a few room sizes that we don't think are right.  Laundry, WIC and the Master Bathroom.  We are going to measure them Sunday. Then we will discuss with the Field Mgr on Monday.

The Framing Begins December 10, 2013

The temp today was in the 20's.  But with the windchill it was about 0 and 10 above!!!

Husband said the crew of 4 were working diligently.   

Wood Delivery Dec 09, 2013

They delivered the wood today and hubby will be staying the night in his truck because he heard a build in the area had a furnace stolen!!!!  The temps are in the teens and low 20's! 

Let's hope they get the framing complete quickly. Fingers crossed +
