Interior Doors and Trim

John stopped by the house today and took some photos from his mobile phone of the interior work that is taking place.

December Snow

Overnight we got approximately 6" if snow. We took a ride to see the house covered in snow and wanted to share the photo with you.

Updated Exterior

The exterior siding is complete. The only thing left is to install the columns on the front and back porches:

Siding and progress of work

Today we went by the house and they have made a lot of progress. Inside the house, the walls have been primed and await paint after the cabinets, trim, and other work is finished.

Outside, the siding has been completed on the sides and back the house and are now working on the front. We have decided to go with an upgraded trim and crown package to give it more of a "pop". As you can see we have had some winter weather and the house looks great.

The front porch has been poured to match the back patio and looks great!

As we head into Christmas, we are now working with our loan officer to get the financing prepared so that we can hopefully lock in our interest rate come January. We are just hoping the rates stay low for another couple weeks however we have seen them start to increase some.

On a lighter note, we are offering everyone a chance to play a game called "Where's John?" after the popular "Where's Waldo?"as he has begun to appear in more of the photos.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2011!

Inspections are done!

Sorry for not updating in awhile but we have been waiting for the rough-in work to be complete and the inspections to be done. To date we have completed the Rough-in inspections: electrical, mechanical, and plumbing.

Now that Thanksgiving is complete, the insulation will be installed and inspected (county and energy star) on Monday and Tuesday. The next step will be drywall. We will post pictures later this week with the insulation and drywall.

Stay tuned!

In other news, we have now picked out our cabinets, hardwood flooring, lighting package, and have narrowed the carpet down to a couple selections.
