Well, I knew a time would come when I would get really antsy about the housebuilding process. That is where I have been for the past two weeks or so. Bobby gets constant comments of "You know what I am really looking forward to about that house....." , and he can give you my multiple ways to end that statement! I am just ready to get over there. I am still very much enjoying the process of building a home, but there are many days when I am just ready to go live there already! Sometimes it seems like it's just a project we are working on without an end. I am thankful that there is progress happening though so I know there will come a time when I will actually get to live there!
In the past 2 weeks we have gotten a septic tank, the front of the house has gotten siding on it, they started building the back porch, the framing was built for the gas log fireplace, we have met with the cabinet guys to discuss where all the cabinets will go, we have picked out flooring, we got the new tub ordered, we took care of positioning the outside lights, and we've made a couple of trips to Lowes to begin looking at some of the next items on the list!
Here are some pictures of the siding, septic tank, and other fun times :)As they started on the siding, the corners were brown. We opted to have them painted white as trim. Here's the before:
Here is the after:

And just one more fun picture...
