Sad News....

We were hoping to come home to some cool new "features" on our house. Unfortunately, due to weather and other issues, we have nothing to report. Hopefully we can show you some new pics sometime by the end of the week. (If it ever stops raining!)

Last pictures for at least a week...

Cinder blocks for the retaining wall


The building of the retaining wall...


The Retaining Wall! (Actually, I think we are going to put another row or too, but it is finished for the time being.)



We are taking off for the next week, but are looking forward to seeing how much gets done while we are gone.

Yet another shot of the house....shingles almost complete. (Just in case you haven't seen it enough yet.)




The almost finished deck...

More House Pics

Our Deck (in progress) Since it is currently 107 outside, I am thinking... ceiling fan, some misters, maybe a waterslide down to the basement level....


Another view from our bedroom...this time with windows in place.


The house half shingled with a couple of windows installed.

Things are coming along nicely!!!

Presenting...

....our HOUSE! (minus the brick...oh and the shingles....okay, and a few other things) But it is really looking like a house now (at least from the outside).




Here's our living room (without all the support beams in the way). The fire place is there in the middle.



This is a shot looking toward the kitchen and breakfast area. You can also see where the stairs go down to the basement on the bottom right of the picture.
