FRAMING DAY 1- We are so
excited! Our weekly PM update said they
would try to start framing next week.
So, we were ecstatic to see that it had already begun today. The crew was working hard when we got there
and then took their lunch break. It was
cold, so we were happy to see them take a break and warm up in their cars. We wish we had thought to take something warm
with us, like coffee or cookies. We
decided to try to do that sometime in the next week to let them know how much
we appreciate their hard work!
Their quick break gave us
a chance to walk down into the basement and really get a feel for what the
layout is like. It was also exciting to
see that our windows and doors have been delivered. We are so excited about the progress that Luke
wants to drive by everyday this weekend.
Hopefully we can!
FRAMING DAY 2- I wasn’t
joking when I told Ashleigh that I was going by everyday this weekend. It’s not all too often that someone gets the opportunity
to build a house and enjoy the newness.
Or is it part of my controlling personality that I can’t let go? Either way, I’m going to enjoy this process
and no one is going to stop me/us!
Seeing one wall yesterday
got us excited, imagine the feeling of seeing/ watching the entire first and
second floors go up! It’s amazing how
fast the puzzle pieces go together and build what we’ve been trying to envision.
I took a moment and
snapped a picture of the girls attempting to do their part in building the house.
FRAMING DAY 3- Things
are really taking shape. The roof gives
the house its character and overall size. There is more to be installed on the roof, but I think what they've done in 3 days is great enough.
FRAMING DAY 4- These
pictures are towards the end of the day and we didn’t bother attempting to get
in the house. As you can see, waterproofing
has begun (which we are thankful for considering it may rain in the next few
days). There were almost 10-12 people working on house so we kept our
distance. -Ashleigh
