We (No Longer) See the Light!!!

It's been a month or more since the last update. So much has progressed! The house has a basement, floors, framed walls and a roof to protect our home from the elements and sun. It's taking shape and I'm so stinkin' excited.

I got teary eyed at the site of my framed pantry. We didn't have much storage in the kitchen in the last house. This house--huge pantry. We also have more than 1 linen closet. With 5 of us, it was packed in the last house.

Insulation will be done today. Siding is going up! I've been so impressed with the project manager, Jim. He answers the phone when we call and takes care of concerns or will find an answer.

We added 2 more can lights in the kitchen after seeing the layout. We also put in a floor outlet where the couch will be in the living room. It'll be floating and electricity is my friend and needed, maybe.

Here go more pictures....
