Our HOUSE!!!

Here is breaking ground on our house Aug 13. We were pretty excited to finally get started. We had been waiting for this day for a long time. Ready... Set... GO!
Putting up trusses.
Putting on the siding, windows and doors cut out. We are unloading tile and exterior doors.
RED yes that is right, as of yesterday Sept 13th, one month, Jeff Weaver, (my brother in law) here we are... siding painted RED, the windows and doors will be trimmed a prairie grass color, kind of gray/cream. I really like the color and very excited with the progress.
Here Jeff and his worker are putting on the roof. It is a tan color. Again, I am happy with the way the colors are coming together. The inside, all framed, plumbing and electrical finished. The next step is insulation, drywall, paint, tile, all the finish work. I have no idea when we will be in, maybe the new year, I don't know... we are not planning, just when Jeff says, all done, hands us the key we will move in. The septic and well have been ordered, we are on the waiting list.
