Walls to Keep the Bad Things Out

Today Chris and I went to Springville and we had a wonderful surprise. . .  WE HAVE WALLS!!  It is starting to look like a house!  That is something that we did not expect to have up so soon.  They started the framing on the basement on Thursday, so we expected that to be what that they got done this week.  The construction crew have been busy little bees.  That means that they put our walls and floor on all yesterday.  How crazy is that?  Fast busy bees.  It was a wonderful and unexpected surprise for us to see.

The front of our house.

The front bedroom and front door.

The second bedroom and bathroom.

The kitchen on the left.  The living room on the right.

The master bedroom, bathroom, and closet.

The back of the house.

As we were walking around we realized that there were a few things that we didn't know we were going to have.  They may have been added on without us knowing, or they were on our options list and we just don't remember.  Either way we consider them great upgrades.  We have GIANT windows upstairs and downstairs.  And in the front bedroom and the living room windows we have 2 windows rather than just the one.  We also have a small window in the master bathroom.  I don't think that bigger windows and more of them is something that anyone would complain about.  Another thing we noticed is that we have a pop-out on the master bedroom in the back of the house.  That is something that we don't remember having in our plans, but again, we are not complaining about it.  It is going to help with the look of our house for sure.

I am excited to go down again on Tuesday.  We are hoping that they have the roof started.  The trusses are there on our lot, so they must be planning to start that part soon.  We are going to keep our fingers crossed for sure.
