There has been a lot of work being done on the house this week. We can finally see the light and feel everything will be done soon. YEAH! Here is what has happened this week:
Tuesday the electrician came and installed three can lights in our family room. What a difference!
Wednesday our contractor was back to finish installing the windows! YEAH! He also added insulation. What a difference in temperature.
I had some fun and took some cool construction photography while the guys were working. I couldn't resist.
Can you tell what we did different to our front window? I did not take a close up, so you'll really have to look. (Leave a comment)
The last thing that happened this week (as of today) was drywall! YEAH! The Rockers came early this morning (7:45am!). It took them no time at all to hang all the drywall. Talk about fast.
Oh, the other thing that has also started is demolition of the flooring. We're getting ready for our new floors. I don't have a specific date of install for the flooring yet, but I'll keep you posted.
I'm not sure if I'll tell you what colors we will paint the walls. I might keep that one detail a surprise. hmmmm.....
NOW, it feels like our house is getting put back together! Stay tuned for more updates soon.

Are the second set of windows (we call them "star windows because you can see the stars...if you don't cover them of course!) the addition? I can't say I remember those being there before? Everything looks awesome by the way! What a relief it must be be getting near the end.
I love it. It's very bright. The white walls must be driving Angela crazy! You know I love you Angela if you are reading this:)Congrats and enjoy a draft-free week.
The answer to my question: (two answers really)
1. no grids on the windows, just glass. : )
2. there is trim under the windows on the outside. There wasn't trim there before, just a fake small ledge of stucco. Now there will be trim and then stucco under. We love it.
Yes, I'm sure the white walls are driving Angela crazy. I love you too Angela! There will be color on the walls, it might take a while to get it all done. We are running out of money and painting the beautiful high walls and ceilings will be a challenge, to say the least. Wish us luck!
