Too Much Snow

It's snowing like mad. Here's a video.

Okay, so maybe not WILD CRAZY snow, but it's pretty impressive for Lacey.

Snow Strikes Again

They haven't done anything at our house this week because it's been too cold & icy. Today it snowed prety heavily and our house had a visitor. Here's a picture.



That's Daire, the girl next door, for those of you who don't know her. She's on the second floor reading a story to a snow man. It looks like she has some hot chocolate, too.

Tour

Here is a brief tour of the house.

The Second Story Grows

The stairway and second story (not including the attic space) have been mostly constructed. Here is a photo.

Second Floor!

They put together the floor system for the psudo-shed dormer. They're also going to have to push the stairway to the west about 1 foot, which means that the hallway arch will need to be pushed back 1 foot, which means the fireplace will be pushed back 1 foot, which means they'll have to widen the 2nd floor bathroom by 1 foot to incorporate the stovepipe. Here are a few images. Sorry for the poor quality.


This is our kitchen. Notice the second floor rafters and the stairway beams under construction.


This is Alexander's room and the family room. Again, notice the rafters.


Our room, inner walls in place.

First Floor Finish Work

The team was working some finish work on the first floor. They plan on putting up the main beams for the second floor tomorrow. We may start seeing the second story coming together soon!
