From baby steps to a full out run ...

Well, we've been making a little progress here and there with the house and now we are in an all out runners stride to make it liveable before we move in this July. Not a lot to show but I thought I would post some pics to let everyone know where we're at.




We had most of the house insulated with spray foam in late January. That made it a lot easier to warm the place up and keep it warm enough to work in. Of course, I use the term warm loosely.











Well truck is in place and we hope to have water in the next few weeks.





Bryon the plumber (nothing a plumber loves more than having his picture taken while he works ;).




A lot of what Bryon has been doing for us in installing this infloor radiant heat system. We'll have toasty toes!!








Dan accomodating my wishes for a recessed vanity in the master bath. Just takes a little wall moving, that's all.






A wonderfully deep soaking tub for my bathroom :) Yes, I said my bathroom. His is down the hall.





His






Me staining cedar (for the fascia). Yes I'm in there, just can't see me in the respirator.


Pretty, pretty fascia~





Dan making "stickers" to stack the stained wood for drying. I don't know where they come up with the names for this stuff but he insists that I learn the "lingo"





... "stickered" wood (sounds silly)



Well, that's all for now. As I said, we plan to move in by the end of July so I will hopefully have a lot of progress shots to post in the coming weeks. Hopefully, or we'll be living in the camper with two cats - yay!
