We Have Walls

It has been quite the journey, building a house. We get a major decision made and think "Whew!" and there is just another major decision waiting to be made. However, it is fun to see the decisions take shape in and on the house. In the last couple of weeks the windows have been installed, all the duct work, electrical and plumbing have been completed, exterior doors have been installed, the roof has been finished, and the drywall has gone up.

The front exterior.

The back exterior. Loving the covered back patio.

Drywall has been completed in the kitchen area.

From the balcony looking down in the great room and fireplace.

The basement rec room, toy room and media room.

Since these pictures, the walls have been mudded and textured. This next week the exterior will be going up. We closed on our existing house this week and we are renting back our house until August 15. It is nice to be able to not have to move twice. There are only about 6 weeks left until the complete date. Man time is going fast!

  1. And I had a heck of a time just deciding whether the new deck stairs should be beveled or flush. I'm pretty sure I would have to have some serious detox if I were to build a new home with the accompanying decisions. Your decisions all look like they are good ones!
