Days 26 and 27....Raising the Roof!

Wooo Hooo we are raising the roof!!  Literally!!

 

The house has started taking shape up top, which really gets it looking good!

 

 

We love watching them work and seeing progress made.  Of course the sunny 80* days don't hurt either!

 

With the roof going up, that means they are also working on the upper level.  Here is the open space that will eventually be a rec room, extra bedroom, and bathroom: 

 

I know it is hard to see with all the studs and sticks everywhere, but here are some shots of the main level that is now completely framed in.

 

This is the main area of the kitchen, including my walk in pantry: 

 

This, folks, is the "sexy" shower.....2 shower heads, seats, and tile/glass features. Love! 

A girl's dream....at least mine.....a HUGE laundry room!  I will have counter space on both sides, a laundry tub, and laundry organizer/sorter. 

 

The kids' rooms downstairs got finished up with framing too, so now they can both see where their walls are and closets. 

 

Today the upper level really started taking shape!

 

Here is the landing at the top of the stairs, looking at the entrance to the bedroom.  The closet and bathroom will be to the right, with access to the bathroom from the hall as well.   

 

We had to take a long weekend hiatus for Easter and some weather, but the builder has been true to his word....total framing of the house takes only about 4-5 solid days.  Even though more rain is expected tomorrow, framing will be all finished Monday and the roof work begins Tuesday.  By the end of next week, the house will be completely sealed from the outside and work can begin inside (electrical, etc).  Can't wait!!
