Before Windows

And After!!

Snowy days...and who shows up...heating and plumbing!!

There is a lot happening at 6339 Quail Lane...

As winter is settling in and getting comfortable we are finally seeing the activity ramp up at the house.  It's almost un-nerving to see so much activity!

I popped in this afternoon and found 6 or 7 guys busy drilling holes, running pipe, setting vents...the heaters and plumbers working side by side.  It was exciting and they were all so nice.

What joy to drive up and see all this activity at the house!

Heating in the ceiling of the basement for the main floor!

Working on the heating unit

Venting upstairs

Plumbing

more plumbing...

Kitchen sink plumbing

Oh, and did I mention we have a tub...or you have a tub...this is in the guest room!

and windows...we have windows!! (and there sure are a lot of 'em!)

Driving away it looks the same from the outside....ah....but the inside...

Interior Framing complete!

At least that's what we are told...and it looks like it too.  You probably can't tell much from these photos but we can...in person.

Walking through a bit of a maze we can make out bathrooms, closets, etc...it's very exciting!

looking toward dining room and guest bath & bedroom

Great room wall...

And we picked a fireplace!!  So Fun!

Fine tuning...

Just a few photos from the site...it looks like the roof is all on now and more work is being done inside.  The stairway has been opened and Mike and I took a ceremonious (and corny) first walk up the stairs, arm and arm!   The wall to the laundry room and closet has gone in...you can kinda see it in the second photo down.

Just before the 'stair-walk' ceremony!

from the main level down...

Roof looks to be on! 

STAIRS!!

We went up to the 'site' to show John, our friend,  master carpenter/builder/knower of all things construction, the house.  Much to our surprise it appears that the framers were up working on a very big snow day.

Not much done on the upstairs, but a lot of framing downstairs.  I can say 'downstairs' now because we actually have a set of stairs!  So very exciting!

And later that same afternoon we had a call from our builder about windows!  The order has been placed!
Hip Hip....!

I know you want to see em....without any further ado....STAIRS!!!

STAIRS!!!

Stairs with a surprise...CLOSET!!

Looking from the 'Family room' toward the unfinished area...see stairs on the left?  :)

Upstairs a view of a very snowy Great room ...want to get this enclosed ASAP!
