Framing

 

After we got back from the Cayman Islands we were so excited to see if there had been any progress on our house. We were disappointed when we went and it was the same as when we left...just our foundation done. I guess the framers got behind were late starting on our house(they are also working on 2 other behind us and a new one next to us). So we waited a few days and when we went our basement was all framed! Then a few more days..the main floor! Now the whole upstairs is up and the roof. after they frame they start on the inside and windows.

Mason and I always make an excuse to go see our house. We love measuring stuff out and thinking where things will go. And Max loves going too, he points out where "daddy's office" is and everything. We are trying to let him know we are moving soon and saying goodbye to our house that we live in now. He laughs and says "you kidding" haha no we are not kidding my buddy. But I think he will be pretty good with moving.

So when our builders called us for an update on the progress they gave us a new rough end date of September 17th-20th. They said they would know better the end of this week. only 2 weeks longer then what we thought so not to bad.

we love to drive by to see our house being built and they poured our foundation last week! next they will start framing, we are so excited. we always make an excuse to go see the progress. over the weekend we went twice just to hang out and watch the sunset, which we will see every night from our porch.

The Design

 

 

 This morning we went to our design meeting for our new house. It went so well and I am SO excited to see it all put together! we picked our flooring, lighting, counters, doors, and other little things. I feel so lucky that we are able to do this and I look forward to living in such a beautiful place.

Last week Mason and I took the kids out to our lot where our house is going to be built.
We decided we are going to go take pictures every week or so of the progress.
We am SO very excited to have a house we own and know that we can settle down for awhile, know that Max will probably start Kindergarten there! Oh It is so exciting.
I can't wait till they finally start building, only three months till it is supposed to be done but it feels like forever to me now.
