Not surprisingly, I have not posted for quite some time. Disclaimer: I figured I may as well wait until there are more visual updates on the house so that I could attach pictures to the post. All of the windows have been installed, the siding is up and the exterior doors have arrived. Our electrical rough-in is complete and has passed the inspection! The fire sprinkler and central vac plumbing is in, and the security and sound wiring is finished. Moving right along huh? The wood on the inside of the windows is in the process of being stained as well as the beams in the great room, kitchen and master bedroom. Once the staining is complete, the insulation will be installed and then on to the sheet rock. It's getting closer and we are very happy with the progress.
Photo descriptions (top to bottom):
1. The first window that I stained. Not too bad for a rookie. Of course, it will look much different once the interior walls are done and the trim is around the windows. My wonderful hubby did the taping on all (44) of the windows. He rocks!
2. Back doors to patio from kitchen.
3. Front door.
4. Windows from the outside.
5. Front of house. By the way, the paint color on the siding and gable-end shingles is only the pre-primed color from the factory. We will probably have to wait to paint until Spring! Boo hoo.
