Oh the house is getting closer to being done!!! On Tuesday, July 8th they finished up electrical, low voltage, mechanical and a few pieces of backing for the bathrooms (places to put the towel bars, etc.). We had a walk-through with Scott to make sure everything was set before insulation. It was!! :)
Wednesday, July 9th was insulation day!! What a difference that makes!!! Our current neighbors across the street own the insulation company and wow did they do an excellent job!!! He told us he has his best crew out there...with over 100 years experience. It really shows...it looks great. They even put some insulation in the 'window wall'...in between all those boards!! I couldn't believe that! Our front door is also on (but no one can use it...and they better not hurt it as it is PRETTY!!) and the service doors are on too.
Thursday, July 10th was a little more insulation and the delivery of sheetrock. I thought there would have been more, but I am sure it is more than enough for them!! :) Glad those guys will be doing it...because hanging sheetrock in a new house with NO AIR and you cannot open the windows as they are covered to keep them nice and it is JULY does not sound like fun to me!!! Today we also had a meeting at the house to figure out closet organizers, lights, the backyard patio, the front sidewalk and light, and measure for the cabinets!! It is getting serious now!!! The last picture is just of some of the many wires in the house. Everyone kept telling us "wow you have a lot of wire in here!"
The kids had fun at the house tonight too as they got to see a baby bunny and kept looking for it as it went into the garbage container. First picture you can see the bunny and the kids are just seeing it too. Second picture they are looking for him. Third picture they even got Chris and Karl looking for it too!!
Either tomorrow or Monday they will start hanging the sheetrock! YIKES! And the next Monday they start taping. Whoa...good thing I am sitting down!!
On anther note...we had one showing on Tuesday and just got a call for another one tomorrow (Friday). Not too bad since this is a very slow time, but we really want something to happen. Any positive thoughts would be greatly appreciated right now! :)

Your house is really taking shape. I'm finally taking time to go on the computer as it is raining outside forcing me to do inside stuff. Did the kids find the bunny?? Your turn for a bunny. Hope you have a offer coming in soon. Miss all of you Love Mom
