We now look like a house!

This is the fire place with a ton of pipe, wiring, etc. Not a good pic, but you get the idea.

So I know it has been roughly a month since my last post, but things have been a bit hectic to say the least. Now that we are back around our families, it seems that there are constantly people to go eat with, people to drop in for a visit with, not to mention activities at church and in the community. We are really enjoying it here, but I never would have guessed our life in the small town would be this crazy. It is a different kind of pace than San Antonio and one that we both love.





As far as the house goes, a lot has happened since my last post. We now have a frame (which is covered here in Tyvek- which is like the 'skin' pre-brick), windows, a roof, and painted exterior, and all of our plumbing, security, cable, electric, etc. that has to be put in before the walls are insulated and sheet rocked. We will begin the insulation process tomorrow and sheet rock will start on Friday. The masons will arrive next week so the house will really start to take shape. It was extremely overcast today, so by the time I arrived at the house, you couldn't see a lot from the inside, so this is exclusively an outside picture post. I am going to ask Monty to take some pictures of the insulation process because it has the best of my curiosity. I will try to be much better with my posts, especially when it comes to the selection of tile/wood, paint, etc. We are thrilled with the progress and can't wait to share more with you. Sorry!
