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!!

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.

Recreation of London Beef and Mushroom Pie

While in London I ate this wonderful beef and mushroom pie! I wanted to recreate it and use some of the deer steak in our freezer. I found this recipe . Of course like most recipes I tweaked it a little. I added green peas and left out the celery. I also used pie crust instead of puffed pastry. I made individual ones in these cute Corningware dishes. They were delicious!
