Well, I realize I’ve disappeared from the blog world for awhile.

[Insert unnecessary apology here]

The progress on the house continues, although we are still living at our Spring Lake house.  (Otherwise known as the “Spring Lake Estate” …and when you say it, you must do your best impression of Thurston Howell III.)

When asked, “When will you be moving?”  our automatic response is: “Two weeks.”  We wanted to move before school started, but the first day of school photos took place on the front stoop here for the last time.

I’m going to cover updates a room or two at a time.  We’ve made so much progress!  Here’s C and J’s room, walls and insulation torn out:

C&J Room Walls Torn Out

Somehow, I haven’t snapped a photo of the completed sheetrock in the room.  Seams are even coated twice.  A quick touch up coat and some sanding, and it will be ready for paint and carpet.

The next shot is from the last day of roof replacement.  Going up the stairs, I could see right out the roof…

Pipes, open roof

Making pictures of our house is going to be decidedly more boring when all the walls are up.
