HAPPY THANKSGIVING........

More progress.....the whole house has been rocked in and now the endless taping, mud, taping has begun. The half wall for the kitchen counter is built, the stairs and ceiling are enclosed.

And most importantly the long awaited siding installation has begun to cover that lovely yellow house wrap. Now to dream of Thanksgiving 2011 - counter space and a dishwasher!

INSULATION AND DRYWALL........

Lots of work going on again. Insulation, vapor barrier and drywall is being installed. Now we need to pick out paint colors, tile and flooring, kitchen cabinets and appliances are ordered. The coil of tubing hangs from the ceiling to be installed in the first floor ceiling for the in floor heating system. Still looks like a big yellow box on the hill, the siding is scheduled to be put on next week.

ENTRY AND DOORS.......

Feeling more like a house on every visit. Siding will have to wait till there is a break in the weather. The electrician should be back today to finish his work. Haven't picked out light fixtures yet, but Shawn has all the components for surround sound and is making sure Direct TV can be installed so he'll have the NFL package.....priorities!
