We Have a Garage

So far this week we have a garage added on to the rest of the house.

I don't think that I have mentioned who our builder is, his name is JR Cabra.

He and his crew are doing a great job.

Big Ran is not around today and wanted me to post some pictures of it, so here they are.

This picture was taken from inside the garage.

This is the hallway, half bath, mudroom, laundryroom, and pantry.

This is getting pretty exciting for me!!

Master Bedroom Headboard

I have ordered my master bedroom headboard.

I found it at www.hautelook.com.

Here is what it looks like.

 

I was going to try to do a DIY headboard from scratch.

But I don't think I could have beat this price!

Do you like it???

I sure hope I like it when it comes in.

This New House is Moving Right Along

We have walls!

I have been told that all the outside walls should be up today.

Yay!!

Putting the ceiling in the basement makes the basement seem much larger.

I had to get a picture of the guys in action.

Now I have to get the plans and figure out exactly where I want all of the inside walls to go.

No small task.

Wish me luck.

Progress, Progress, Progress

So far we have beams up in the basement.

The stairs are boxed in.

Some of the floor is being laid.

Doesn't look like a house to me yet.

Here is a view from the basement up.

I never had any idea how many tresses it takes to hold up a floor.

I will feel very safe walking across it.

Just taking you through every step of the way.

Building Supplies Have Arrived

Our first load of supplies have arrived.

Maybe this is really going to happen!

We have been picking out windows, doors, columns for the front porch, siding, shingles, and much more.

I will keep you updated on all of the decisions that we have been making.

I would love to hear form some of you about your house building/remodeling experiences

These decisions are a lot harder to make than I would have ever guessed.

Our Front Door - June

Here is what our front door looks like this month.

I love the mixture of purple and lime green in the black pots.

What does your front door look like?

Doors and Windows

Well, today we went shopping for windows and doors for the outside of the house.

We are waiting for bids to come back in from 2 different companies.

Here is a picture of what the front door that I have picked out looks like.

		No, it is not green or red. It's the glass work that I am talking about. What do you think???? More later..........................Sally
