House Update Wednesday

Posted by with 7 comments | in
Wow!  So it's been a few weeks since I've given you an update on the house...what a slacker.

Sooo much has been done since my last update when I told you that the plumbing rough-ins were being done.  Since then the insulation and siding has been installed, the drywall has been installed and mudding and taping is nearly finished! The basement floor has been poured and they have prepped to pour the sidewalk/stairs leading up to the house.

Here's some pictures from the last few weeks:

    That's so awesome! And so exciting too. We bought our house brand new, but it was already built when we found it so we didn't see it go up. So cool! When will it be ready?

    It's scary how fast this house is progressing but I guess time really does fly because it's almost November.
