In the Dry





Well, we are officially what they call 'in the dry' with our new house! The framers have finished up their part, and we have electricial, plumbing, and heat & air going on now. In the first month of building, there were dramatic changes that could be seen daily. Now when I go out there, there may be some new wires running through the walls, but the changes are much less obvious. I've had several people getting on me for not posting house pictures lately, so here ya go!

Here, I am standing on the balcony at the top of the stairs looking down into the living room and kitchen

Wires wires everywhere

This is the front porch, partially painted. The wood around the bottom of the beams will be covered by stone when we get it in. We went with local cedar posts and I love how they look!

So this is where we are now! This week, we will be getting the brick put on the sides and back, and the fireplace will be installed. Hopefully our stone will be in this week and we can get the stone put on around the fireplace, chimney, and outside beams. All of the wiring should be finished by next week, and then we will be ready for sheetrock. We are all just so ready to get into this house - it can't go fast enough!
