A Few Outdated Photos, maybe...

These pics were taken Monday, and hopefully they're old by now...

More Drywall, but not much else...

Oops, not true. Joel has got some major holes dug for the deck piers. He was also kind enough to chop down a terribly overgrown flowering bush thing just off the existing patio as well as the nasty beat up privacy screen to the North of the patio. Thanks, Joel!

And Jason and his guy got a ton more drywall hung today. See photos:

The Drywall's A-Goin-Up!!!!

Well, we didn't take any photos today, but Jason got ALOT of the drywall up today. Stay tuned for photos of the interior...

Here are some pics from yesterday:

Really Quick...

Well, yet another truck drove all over our yard today...what difference will a few more rutts make?!

These new rutts are the product of massive amounts of drywall being delivered.

Also, we met with Joel tonight regarding the back porch and have paid him his first installment of cash so he can get a move on. We are really excited about the porch and can't wait to entertain out there!

So, we'll post some photos later...for now it's bedtime. We've been working on our inventory for the past couple of hours. We found a track on the voice recorder thing that we thought we had deleted and have rocked out the breezeway, bathroom and dining room pantry!!!! Hooray!

Almost Finished!!!

Well, the siding that is. :)

We drove by this morning, and were pretty happy with what we saw. The boys are almost finished with the exterior work. There's a bit of siding that needs some attention on the front of the house, and we are waiting for the small windows in the master bedroom to be replaced with more appropriate windows. Once those come in, they'll be able to finish the siding on the South side of the house. Aside from that, there are some small details that need to be addressed...plinths on the columns, a lentil over the door, etc. Otherwise, things are moving along.

By Tuesday we expect Brown to begin drywalling. He expects to be finished in 2 weeks. While he's rockin' out the walls and ceilings, Dennis should be leveling out the subfloor and prepping it for the hardwood.

Speaking of the old GC, we just got his second installment of money, so that should make him happy for a bit.

A Quick Update...

Well, we've been really bad about keeping our blog updated. So, quickly, here's an update of what's going on:

Almost all of the siding has been put up.
Most of the plumbimg and electric has been pulled.
The insulation seems to be about finished.
The front porch has been demoed and repoured.
We have selected the hardwood floors and they should arrive shortly.

We are hoping to see Brown in there next week or so to begin drywalling.

Just some recent photos...
