Coming along...

Lot's of stuff happening since the last post. The rough end's for electric, hvac, and plumbing are almost done. We hope to call tomorrow for the inspection! The septic and well are in the process of being put in...and the yard is just a BIG MESS!!! We're hoping the well guy strikes some oil, and this silly business of coming to work everyday can stop :-)


Next steps after the rough end inspection is to get the place insulated, and then the drywall guys come in....and then its trim and paint and floors!!

Here are a few pictures of the progress!

I remembered

The siding is complete now on the outside we will just have to put up all the front porch stuff rails etc. and put up the shutters.
My favorite part i think is the screened porch and the deck...can't wait to enjoy it!

Below is our recessed lighting that has been "roughed in."

We had a little help last weekend cleaning up...you judge which one did the most work ;)

Update

We took some new pictures this weekend and it looks great but I keep forgetting the camera so I can upload the pictures. I will try to remember again tomorrow.
The latest is the plumbers are done, the electrician is almost complete it's so cool because he has it set so we can cut lights on in the evening which is cool. I meet with the HVAC guy tonight to iron out a few details and it shouldn't take him long to be done. I met with the septic guy last night and gave him the deposit to get started on the septic...weather permitting he thinks he will have it complete in about 2 weeks.
So, as soon as the HVAC guy is complete we will have the insulation guy come in and then the drywall will go up. I hope to have the drywall complete by the end of January or very beginning of February.
I will update with some pictures soon. We were able to get everything up out of the yard this past weekend so no more scraps or lumber or anything so it looks pretty good :) Needless to say one of my Dad's barns has enough lumber in it for me to build another house it seems like.
