Hi all!!
It's a very windy day today and the guys: Richard, Ryan, and Tom are out beginning to side the house today! Wow!
The sheetrock has been put up and the tape and texturing is complete as well!!
I've been trying to upload pictures to my Picasa program and I'm not able to upload what I want so I have to try to be a techy and figure out what to do! Bummer!
Now we get to start picking out colors for painting the inside and outside! Fun!
It looks so different now!
Oh yeah...the back patio has been poured! It looks great and it's so neat to stand on it and look at the back yard!
It's coming along! We'll see how long it takes to side the house! The garage doors should be in on Friday and installed on Monday!
Well no pictures to post but will put some up soon hopefully!
Take care all!

Master bathroom project!
Papa Forrest has helped Tom with setting the tile in the kids bath and our master bathroom floor. Tom was thankful for the help for the master bath since we did a beautiful travertine floor and it took lots of time trying to figure out the layout of the tiles!!
A monster anyone??
Energy juice for a tired Tommy!
Pre-granite install!
We only used 2cm granite instead of the now common 3cm, so we had to put down plywood for support! Tom was working many long hours during this time an living off of Monster energy drinks, as you will see in the next pic!

Kitchen cans!
These are a few of the can lights in the kitchen! How fun!!!
Wire spools???
This reminds me of spools of thread...but it's spools of wiring the attach to the framing so they can just pull it out to run it wherever they need!! I just needed to take an artistic picture of this wire spool!! So cool!
Wires, wires, and more wires!!!
Wow..so much wiring to run throughout the house....hat's off to the electricians who are so good at what they do!!

The guys are running the tubing stuff for the HVAC system that is going up on the trusses for the vents to come out of the ceiling!

We were so very thankful that Jeremy took the time to drive from Spokane for the day to help Tom roof the house! They accomplished a lot because Jeremy came! Thanks Jeremy and family for giving your time to help!
