Lumber Troubles

So technically they were suppose to start framing Monday. Dad ordered the lumber early last week. When they didn't have it up here last Friday he canceled that order and placed one with another lumber company that assured him it would be there by Tuesday. Well it wasn't. Supposedly they had a blowout on their way from H.S. they finally got it there Wednesday. My brother and his friends were ready to come up Thursday morning but it was raining. They didn't want to drive the hour up here and get rained out. Completely understandable. So as of now, they will be up here Monday to start putting up the walls. 

We're having bad luck with material. The concrete truck broke down. The lumber truck had a blow out. What next?  

I picked out the front door, back living room doors, and the sliding door for the bedroom this week. Super excited that they have the blinds built in. I hate regular blinds on doors.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Our Kitchen

My favorite room in the whole house!! We still need to put the cabinet pulls on the cabinets. I have them picked out, I think dad has ordered them. We also still have to trim out the appliance garage, microwave, and fridge. The trim pieces are in the garage. I absolutely love being able to cook while watching TV and the open space for entertaining.  There is so much storage! I can finally buy in bulk or buy two of something when it is on sale. I literally had one cabinet for food storage in the rent house. Everything was neatly crammed in there. Now I can actually get something without taking everything out.
