House Update Wednesday

Posted by with 8 comments | in
It has been a very exciting week for the house!  Last week they had started framing and so we've got some great photo's to share.  They finished the four walls on the main floor and the interior framing on the main floor on Saturday this week.























Yesterday the builder got in touch to let us know that our framing should be done by the end of this week and they'll start on rough in's shortly!

I took this pic at lunch today - so from Monday to today they got the second floor done and the roof!

    OMG that is so exciting! If I were building a new house, I'd literally be camped out on my lot for months.
