Holy Sheetrock!!


Lots of progress this week! The entire house has been sheetrocked, so we are really getting a feel for how the rooms will be in the finished house. It is looking so much better than we ever imagined. Our only concern at this point is how we're going to decorate all these new wonderful spaces that we've never had before in our previous houses. This is a picture of the living room from the dining room looking toward the front door. Photo credit goes to Carol Lange at Signature. Thanks Carol!

Movin' on to the next milestone

Today was a milestone known to Signature as "Frame Review". We walked around the house with the builder making sure that everything was where it should be. Of course since we had been there so much, we already knew that all was well! All the windows and doors are in. They were putting up the insulation while we were there and making progress towards finishing the shingles on the roof. By the end of the day, the sheet rock had been delivered and I'm sure this will be a very different looking place by the end of the week!

This pic cracks me up. I believe these are the guys who wired the house. Now, that's accountability!!

Workin' sun-up to sun-down!



We don't get out to "the Chace" very often during daylight hours, but we caught the tail end of a picturesque clear but cold day this week. I just love the silhouette of the guy on the roof in this one! If I kind of squint a little bit, I can just imagine us on the back porch having that glass of wine after work and enjoying the park.

Porch!!!



We've been out of town all weekend and when we returned.... a covered patio! It is pretty much exactly like what we were hoping for... check it out.

They are moving right along!!!

We dropped by today and most of the framing had been done. Here is the hole for the gas fireplace.
