Addition - Days Sixteen through Twenty-One

Day Sixteen - We have walls
Man those framers are fast! From concrete to walls in just a few hours. It's amazing to see the rooms take shape after seeing the concrete looking so drab.

Days Seventeen & Eighteen
They finished the walls and the roof is on. The windows are in. The kids set up their tent and attempted to sleep in the addition on Saturday night. When the thunder started shaking our house we decided it was time to bring them in. Nonetheless on Sunday they slept out there and had a great time.



Jim has become quite the handy man through it all...

Day Nineteen
Sunday - peace and quiet~

Day Twenty
HVAC gets finished and the fireplace is installed
Day Twenty-One
In just three weeks...
The kitchen is now opened up to the addition. They did an awesome job on the arch. It flows along nicely with the rest of the openings in the house. The large opening is not a window, but where the bar will eventually be. The electrician comes tomorrow and we should be ready to sheet rock by the weekend!
