Inside and Outside.........

Nothing like multi-tasking! Drywallers are putting the first coats of drywall mud on the walls and siding is going up outside. Love the progress!

 
First coats of tape and mud in the foyer and greatroom.
 
 
Cedar shakes in the gables and soffit/coil stock going up on the trim.
 
 
And then the siding starts to go up.
 
Stay tuned for more pictures!!

Redbud Interlude

This time of year the Redbud trees put on a spectacular show!  We took a stroll on the property and soaked it all in.....
Majestic Jake

 
I dedicated this as Redbud Boulevard

 
Oh...had to throw a little more of the house in for good measure!

April showers.....

Luckily the exterior brick was completed before a week of spring showers!


 
corner detail

foundations for front porch columns
 

A rainy spell is a perfect time to start drywallin'

 
looking into the diningroom

the kitchen .... and butler's pantry through the archway

And Connor, upon seeing the house said, "Grams, your house is broken!"
 
Not for long buddy, not for long!

Happy Easter! Here's your roof!

A break in the weather allowed the roofers to put the shingles on. Now we're dry on the inside!
 
 The day starts out with a load of shingles and the roofer laying anchor boards on the roof.
 Day 1:  half complete.
And here's the finished product. Schaweeeeettt!!   HAPPY EASTER!
 
On Monday drywall and brickwork begins. :)
