Walls!

I started collecting pictures for this post last Monday. So here it goes. 

Monday they started putting up my frame. They got all but the bedroom and garage done. 

The back doors and windows will go in this ginormous hole. They will have the blinds built into the windows. 
The bedroom sliding door hole. It will also have blinds built into the windows. 

Tuesday they finished the frame and started putting the plywood up. 
Wednesday they started the roof. 
It rained Thursday. So no work. 
Friday they worked on the roof. They got the outside boards up. I found out yesterday, when they were up here to finish the roof, that they messed up Friday so they spent time fixing it yesterday. 
Rain again today! Ugh! Hopefully they can finish the roof tomorrow and we can get the plumber and heating and air guys out there.
Rain or any bad weather is a real pain when building a house. I can't wait until the roof is on and rain doesn't hinder us/them from working!!

You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
