House Update

Take a look at that beautiful driveway!
The brick looks finished from the front now! We are still working on the back, though - a few more weeks.



Shane and his dad whipped out the two sides of the house in just a few days! It was the best progress yet!



They are doing an awesome job!


Moving on to the inside...time to put up finish wood.


I love the big headers over the door, very classy.


These boards will go up after the hard wood and tile are done. We are now moving on to paint.


We decided to do a glaze over the trim and doors. It took an extra week of work, but I think it looks awesome!


We had to paint on the glaze, it's like a really thick stain, then wipe it off. The doors were the most painful and slow.


Luckily we had lots of help to speed it up, or it would have taken forever!


We are all done painting now. The walls blend really well with the trim. I'm really happy with how the colors are coming together. It's a good thing too, because we realized that painting is a lot of work! Shane is not about to dive into that one again any time soon.


Here is the master bath and closet. We got the green coat down on the floors for tile now so that's the next big project.


Harley and Noah's bathroom. Notice how cool the trim around the door is with that glaze in the crevices. So cool!


Kevin made our mantle for the fireplace. He did an amazing job!




Shane and Jeff got the fireplace all framed in today and we picked out our rock, things are moving along pretty fast now!

House Update

We started on the brick the first of October. Shane had some really great ideas for the detail, but it sure is a lot of work for him and his dad. It looks awesome!
Shane sent me around looking at cool details we could do over the garage. I came up with this little design, I thought it turned out pretty good (this isn't the finished product).



Here's Shane and his dad working away...



The finished product (the garage anyway...we have a long way to go)



Meanwhile, the sheetrock is coming along on the inside. It's starting to look like a house now!



Harley stopped for a pose in her room


Here is the family room, the corner is the fireplace.

Still Framing...

The house is all dried in and we are framing inside now! It hasn't rained since!




We finally have stairs so I don't have to climb the ladder to get in!





This is a view of the front door and the bedrooms, the hole is where the stairs to the basement will be.



This is the entry from the garage. I have a pantry, a laundry room, and a little bathroom!



Here is how far we've come...
