Drywall and Big Slider!

It was late last night when Samuel asked if we could go check out the house.  Joe had taken Rachel to soccer practice, and I really wasn't up for making the trip - but we went anyway.

... And I am SO glad we did because there had been exciting progress! The big slider window/door had been installed and all the drywall had been delivered (and placed in each room.)  As well, the upstairs room was just about completed with drywall!  

The boys were so excited (which I love to see) and wanted to go into each room one-by-one to check things out.  

We are being very patient, knowing that it will all come together as it should.  And we are enjoying the pitstops to see all the progress.  We have also been able to meet many of the neighbors, so we won't seem like such strangers when we move in, which will be nice.

 

Windows & Insulation

It doesn't always appear that things are happening from the outside, but on the inside -- there has been a lot of great progress! 

The windows went in last week + the fireplace insert.  And today Samuel and I made a trip over and found that the insulation had gone in - plus the the siding had been delivered.  So little-by-little it is all coming together!

And then tonight we decided to stop in and get mom so that we could all take another look.  The sunset was so pretty!  I am going to enjoy those views so very much...

Windows!

Quite sure his view will not get old...

Yellow Wrap - Check!

We took the kiddos for ice cream to celebrate a successful "first-day-back-to-school" and decided to drive by the house to see if anything had changed.  It had! The house is almost done being wrapped in yellow, which means windows will go in very soon too (they were also delivered to the house.)  

I also love the checklists that are on the walls.  :-)  And I had forgotten to snap a photo of our signatures from last month, behind the fireplace.
