Seeing a Second Story

We took advantage of the Thanksgiving sales to buy lots of stuff for the house.  Robby found a great deal on TV's we wanted and then on Black Friday we bought all of our kitchen appliances.  There were so great deals to be had so we got a few ceiling fans, too!  Bit by bit we are getting things done.

On Monday after Christmas break I drove by to check out the house and the first floor was totally framed.  Our third garage may look HUGE and that's because it is over-sized to fit our boat when we need to have it at our house.  The front elevation of the house and the roof lines actually make it look good.  Right now it looks like the garages totally take over the house, but Robby promises me once the second story and front porch get on it will look more proportional.

It has been raining for the past two days and there is no end in sight.  From the looks of it, the rain could continue through the weekend.  That isn't stopping the framers who are ready to get this job done.  They've been working in the rain and today the second story was going up.

Things have been so wet and muddy so I haven't really gotten up to the house to check out things up close, but seeing a second story from afar is exciting! As long as we are making progress I'm happy.
