I know... I know... Finally updated pictures

I have been "a little" delinquent in my blogging. I just have had a few other things on my mind lately.... Things have been moving along here, a little slow at times as they pulled half the crew off to start another job. But every time it rains or looks like rain we get the whole crew as they are putting a 2nd story on a ranch and like to keep that tarped.

This week they moved inside and took out the 1st floor bathroom and closet and opened that all up. They also finally opened up the wall in Sarah's room to the new addition too. The foyer is huge -- 14' x 9'. But it looks really nice and opens up the front of the house nicely. As you can expect Chris is loving this, but he left today on a business trip to Mexico and won't be back until Saturday. They have left the walls surrounding the kitchen up next to the new family room -- probably because those rooms aren't sealed up against the weather and that is a big area to open up and have all that cold air coming in.

The roof was reshingled a couple of weeks ago and they are coming to put up fascia, soffit and gutters the end of this week or beginning of next. I am most anxious for the new siding to go up as that will make a huge difference to how the outside of the house looks.

Last week they did quite a bit as they tore down the family room wall with the old fireplace and rebuilt it completely and added the three smaller windows, boxed out. They framed the walls for the new garage storage area in the old family room. They also tore out the old roof from under the new roof since it was now all waterproof with the shingles on.

The mechanicals are going to be coming in starting tomorrow to move some of the plumbing, put in new duct work and probably do some electrical work. I am really enjoying this all while trying to work from home. There is no place safe from the sound as they seem to be everywhere now that they are inside. Panera Bread has become my new home away from home!

Well, here are some pictures.
