We've come a long way baby!!!

WOW!!!  Things sure do look different huh?  So, once the plumbing and electrical were done Cory and Nick went through the whole house and wired it for phone, cable, internet and stereo system.  Let me tell you (as you can see from our pics), THAT WAS ALOT OF WIRE!!!  That took them a solid weekend and they were completely pooped by the time they were done.

Then the drywallers came in and laid all the sheetrock and did the mud, tape and texturing............and drywall is DONE, finally.  Five to nine days turned into fourteen and we had some issues with them but all we can really say is at least they're finished and we can move forward.  On to PAINT!! :o)

We've also finally got a back door.  They got it all fixed up and installed week before last and simultaneously Cory and Nick got the soffet laid out for the front porch and the handle and deadbolt installed on the back door.  It all looks beautiful. 

Then another road block!!  Why would it not have been pointed out to us in the framing stage that if we want a roll in shower for Kaylee we should have the floor dropped in there so that after tile and underlayment and such it's all the same height????  SOOOOOO, Cory and Tim had to cut out and drop the floor in there this week so the tile was ready to be laid.  Ahhh, the trials of construction.

Last but not least some good news...........I got a call yesterday that our cabinets are coming on time and we should see them by the end of next week hopefully.  Then the lady called today to tell me the front door came in and is ready to be picked up!  Good things......very good things! :o)
