Framing part 1

     Today was the beginning of the framing.  It was supposed to start yesterday but they had to stop because of rain.  The past few days the plumber went out and did the rough-in plumbing and it was inspected and passed.  When we went out today we were really hoping to see some walls up but even though there were none it was still exciting. We were able to see the room lines for the downstairs den, dining room, kitchen and half bath.  Here are some pics:

Some of the wood delivery. :)

     The next pictures are the ones that I took today, while the framers were working.  They had put the floor down and were working on getting the walls ready to put up. Yay finally!! :)

The half bath, the hole is where the toilet will be. The sink will be where the saw is.

I'm not sure what the scaffolding was all about, but it was exciting to watch anyhow! :)

 

     We might head out there this weekend to see the progress that has been made and if we do I'll be sure to get more pics.  We are also on a hunt for tile for the front entryway, bathrooms and laundry room.  So far Home Depot has the best prices and they also have a military discount.  When we make our decision I will post a sample of the tile.

 

Thanks for reading!
