Our house is coming along......
Wow, so it has been 3 weeks since my last post- shame on me! We were on vacation because what better time to leave your house when there is hammering going on from dawn to dusk. We went to Sand Mtn and then Reno for a week. Fun, fun, fun. And I truly needed it. The walls to the second story are up and sheeted and the roof will be going on next week. We have three very talented guys working on the job who are just great (not to mention Gary and the kids and I pitch in whenever we can.) Enjoy!

Backyard view looking up into the nook area. We have to wait to frame in the nook windows until we lay out the trusses on top of the beam system. Don't ask why, that is just what they told us........ask Gary!
