House Progress

It was a busy week at our new house! Early in the week Kenton and Zach started framing our porch roof,

 then our shingles showed up,

 and the plumbers brought in boxes of plumber-stuff,

 and the HVAC guys brought in more boxes of metal-vent-stuff,

 and THEN!!! Kroft Lumber brought our windows!!!

 One day we got a porch roof, the next they started putting in the windows...it's starting to look like a legit house!

 And, the boys have a tub/shower in the bathroom. They are pretty excited to be able to take baths again. We only shower in our current house, but they miss being able to play in a bathtub.

 On a bike ride this afternoon I snapped some photos of the house from a distance. Now that it has nearly all the windows in it's easier to get a feel for how the house will really look.

 We ordered our exterior doors this week...

 and we got a driveway. Like our official, for real driveway! Ben and I spent a long time out there the other night deciding just where the rock should go and how we wanted it to look and function. The next day John Unruh came out and graded it just so, Ben hauled in some rock, John spread it out and boom, a driveway! And we have garage doors - I could barely remember what they were going to look like. I'm glad I still like what we picked out months ago!

Friday at noon, the boys and I headed to town to check out books at the library and grab some groceries. Funny thing about going to town at noon means you end up eating lunch there! We decided it would be a 1st day of summer celebration. We went to Keith's to grab lunch and ran into Kenton and Zach, our electrician, the plumber and the guy making our cabinets! I got lunch, groceries, found out the electrician will be at the house next week and that I need to make a few choices yet on my kitchen cabinets. :-)
