House Wrapping...

Now the framing is officially finished and our house has been wrapped. You can see that the workers have already stacked the shingles on the top of the house, so the roof should be going on soon!

Finishing the Roof!

The workers are finishing up the boards on the roof. Following are photos of the house, beginning with the front left corner of the house and slowly circling around the right side of the house to the back.

The Framing is Almost Finished...

The front porch is now covered and the roof braces are going in. All of the actual framing is finished so the house is really taking shape and looking like the home we designed:



The Garage is in and the Roof Begins...
