House Addition Update

Since I last wrote, a lot has been going on. A huge thanks to my wonderful parents for keeping the boys for us over the weekend so we could get the house ready and to my sister for tackling the upstairs for us. All the furniture has been moved and the master closet is empty. We draped sheets over everything to help keep everything from getting too dusty. We also loaded up the car and the van with all of our day to day stuff and temporarily moved to my parents house. Monday morning at 8:30 am the first shipment of materials was dropped off at the house and at 9 am we closed on our home improvement loan. Unfortunately, it was pouring down rain so the guys couldn't start working. Thanks to perfect weather on Tuesday and Wednesday, they were able to accomplish a lot. The framing is about 99% done. The window for the new bedroom still needs to be installed but they closed up the exposed side of the house with tarps as more rain was in the forecast. Here are some pictures Brian took yesterday after the crew had finished up. Next up will be plumbing, electrical and ventilation.
