View from the back

It's really exciting to see the house take shape so fast. Lots of decisions to make now too including things I've never thought about (like what design of gutter we want).

We walked through the house with our window rep (Hi Carole!) and triple checked all of the window sizes and styles.

what a difference 3 weeks makes!

We went on vacation mid June and returned to find our ground level house was framed up to the 2nd floor!

Yesterday, I watched them build the roof over the girls' bedroom (2nd floor) and it's so exciting to actually walk through the house and see the rooms the way we imagined them on graph paper.

We have kids but this experience is almost like having another baby and seeing the features revealed in ultrasound photos.  This is an extraordinarily expensive "kid" but, fortunately, we don't have to send it to college!
