Running out of time!

Well here is the newest addition to our remodel.
A friend told me I was not remodeling but "rebuilding" I feel that this
is ultimately true. Chad has not been home in 10 months
and doesn't recognize his home anymore.
We have added a covered porch on the front of the house.
It really has transformed the look of our home.
Chloe is standing on her own now... She is very close to walking.
She cut her top teeth tonight boy was she unhappy about it.
Amy, Chloe, Chelsey and I went to visit my mom after her brain surgery.
Eric and Blake went to a Washington state Scout jamboree
for 4 days with no showers. They smelled very stale
on our drive home.

Well... we are running out of time to get those last minute things done...
I am leaving wednesday 6 am for Orlando Florida 2 days
at Disneyworld and a 7 day cruise to the Carribean.

This week on the days of my life.....

Well... We have sheeting on the whole addition.
Home depot came back and dropped off more windows, and siding.

We took the front siding off the house.

Chloe want's this to be OVER!
Who does she look like? Her DAD!
Chelsey went to girls camp!

Some day this will all be done ...

Bucky is working on the bay window.


Roofing supplies are here!

This dumpster is within 1/2 " of hitting my roof.
Party in on the bed! I can work in here... don't mind the tub.
New windows.
New French door the walls have been mudded!
The master bath has a new window and also has been mudded
Chloe is training for the military. The new roof and skylights!
Katie and Riley were dazzled by Twilight.

Saturday we were taking the siding off the house & Installing more winodows.
It is cheaper to re-side the whole house than to buy
Cedar for the outside of the additon. This place is such a mess!

An event filled week...

Tuesday night our friends delivered our new flooring
Thank you Minnochs!

Trusses were put up.
They started taking the wall off the house.

This is a view of the garage.

Here is a view from the back yard.

Windows, shower stall and front door were delievered.Our shower wouldn't fit through the front door so we had to cut
a hole in the wall.

So we decided to install a french door.
Actually it was planned all along. Thank goodness or we wouldn't
have been able to get the shower stall into the house.
Here is a view of the new family room from inside the house.
You can see my bay window cut out on the right.
The Sheeting is on the roof!

Here is the left side of the family room.

Chelsey went on the trek this week.
She loved it ;).


Lots of progress!
