Building our Bungalow - Framing

Changes are happening daily with house.  Over the past week, walls have appeared on the lower level, and the main floor and west wall have been put up.

Building our Bungalow - Foundation

Ok, here is a little update for everyone who has been asking.  We have been busy picking and choosing fireplaces, plumbing fixtures and appliances.  Have we made all the decisons yet? Absolutely not!  We're going back on forth and a few things, kinda like this...



Anyhow, we finally did make some appliance decisions which I will share in a future post.  In the meantime, the bones of the home are continuing to to emerge.  Over the past couple of weeks, the cribbing was completed, the concrete walls poured, and  house backfilled.  Here are a few updated photos!







 
We were over at the lot today and to our surprise, they had already started framing!  Now it's really starting to look like a house.  All in all, things are moving along pretty well, and so far we have been very lucky with the beautiful weather.  Have a great week everyone!!
