Roof/porches

The roof is nearing completion!  They only have our master, part of the kitchen and the roof over the porches to complete.  They are currently working on the porches on the back of the house because they tie into the roof.  Here are some pictures taken today in the gorgeous weather we have been blessed with this past week.

So our next big task is picking out all the lighting.  I went to talk to a lighting specialist and he started giving me ideas, measurements, etc, etc.  After I got my head to stop spinning, I asked for some catalogs so I can browse through and we can get some ideas of what we like.  Here are three that we like for the foyer.  You will be able to see these from outside through the big arched windows.  Go figure they are all from Hinkley Lighting ;-)

Feel free to leave a comment or email to give your vote on which chandelier you like.  The first one is called "Bolla", the second is "Mayflower" and the third is "Plymouth".

Roof and "finish" date

We've had unbelievable weather lately!  I took these pictures this past weekend, but a lot more has been done since then.  I can't wait to take pictures next week to show you how fast the progress is coming along.  Here is the progress as of 3/10/12

Kaleb loves to go to the house and throw rocks, preferably in the stream next to the road if there's water in it. 

Who would have dreamed that we would have a full week of 60 or near 60 degree weather in March?!  We couldn't have planned for better weather if we tried!  We talked with Jesse and he thinks the house will be done in August.  So exciting!!
