Day 32 - Roof and Supplies

Today we got shingles!  Well, some of them anyway.  We have felt on the entire roof and part of the highest peaks shingled.  I had to bring a 3 step stepstoll to get into the house.  It's so high off the ground and they haven't put in any steps yet.  I never wanted so many steps to get in.  Frustrating.

My apologies for some of the poor quality basement pictures.  It was dark and like a sauna down there!
I'm glad they have safety harnesses - even if it's just a rope

I hope they do a good job, I want my roof to last

There's a gap in the peaks, I hope it doesn't cause problems

Morning Room - not a great view but lots of light

Our future kitchen!  SO excited about this room

Goodies for HVAC and stuffs

Day 29 - 2nd Floor Framed

Today I believe our second floor and roof was framed. Thank you again Brittany for all the pictures.  I owe you one!  The PM did send us a few photos, but no where near as helpful as my soon to be neighbor!
It looks very big from the side
I guess there's braces set up?  I hope it's not while the "glue" dries! lol
Look how much higher than the neighbor we are.
I get to see the house for the first time in person tomorrow!  Vacation is nice but horrible timing for house building!

Day 27 - Framing Begins

Our framing began today. Another HUGE thank you to my new neighborhood friend, Brittany!
Looks like they may have gotten the first floor started.
Here is where the metal sticking out of the concrete comes in, they attach the wood to it.
Is it normal for the beams not to go all the way across?
I wonder what the blue rolls are?
I hate the stupid electrical boxes, those need hidden quick!
I guess that guy was camera shy and covered his face.
Framers are so messy! lol

Day 25 - Lumber Delivered

Today our lumber was delivered.  Thank you so much Brittany for the pictures! 
Hard to believe all that will be a house
Hope it doesn't rain on it!
I'm very disappointed that we're not there to witness the delivery and our frame going up but at the same time... we've also seen some other wonderful things here on vacation.
