BUILDING A NEW HOME: THE FRAME IS UP!!!

BUILDING A NEW HOME

This is a detailed account of our experience building a dream house. Hopefully, it will chronicle our daily or at least weekly experiences with the project. We are not building it ourselves, but instead hired a builder to handle that part of the stress. This is our labor of love and we give thanks to God for blessing us with the opportunity to do it.

THE FRAME IS UP!!!

Today was the most EXCITING day yet. Today we can see our home. The frame is really going up. I've gone picture crazy. It is utterly amazing how quickly these teams work. When we got to our site this evening around 5pm, Rich, the builder was there. He offered to take us inside of the house today. Now that there is an inside...I love it! I stood in my living room, foyer, office, dining room. It was great. They have framed a lot of the first floor and next week will work on the second floor. Rich mentioned that the framers really were able to accomplish a lot this week because they brought in two teams to get our house done - as apparently he needs them to get over to a model he's working on building as well. He has promised us 5 mths. and 10 days exactly and he tends to be on time. Great repuation he has for building a really strong house. My husband said he had a dream that we were actually walking around in the house and it was framed. It truly came true! Best of all when we drove up I saw this big structure and thought that's not our house is it? It was. You can actually see it now as you're coming up the street. Big Blessing! All thanks to God!
