Things seem to be going much slower now. I'm hoping that's just because we're doing small things that don't get noticed now. There are several things that were done in the last month that I haven't yet journaled, so I'm adding them all at one time. We got the shingles on, and they've started on the soffit/fascia and gutters. We also got the garage door put up. We haven't yet put the hinge straps and handles on, but I'm including a pic anyway. We also got the steps put in. This makes a world of difference when working there. We put up the patio door also. Now Dad is working on the wiring. This is exciting because I get to plan furniture arrangements to make sure I have my outlets and A/V lines in the right place. Check out the pix below!

| The back porch was an add on. It meant having the roof right below my bedroom window, but I will love having the porch so it's worth it! |

We dug the trenches for all of the utilities right before Thanksgiving. (water, gas, electric, sewage) Because our basement is lower than the city sewage, and we wanted a bathroom in our basement, we put a tank in with a grinder pump to pump the sewage out. We were going to put the tank 10' down. However, this meant digging a hole for this, and then having to dig it up if it needs serviced. So, we put the tank in a room under our front porch. We got a rubber gasket to tightly seal it, and we'll have an alarm in case the pump quits. Overall, I think it was a great solution and I gained a 6'x15' storage room. I've included a picture below.

The floors will be poured. Yesterday the garage floor was poured. Wayne used the power trowel until it was as smooth as glass. Beautiful! I ordered the garage door last week so now we just have to wait to get it in. We found a wholesale place and got a door twice as good for about $500 less.
Today they worked on getting the basement floor ready to pour. As it is over 1,000 sq. ft., we will pour it in two parts. Here you see the PEX tubing for the radiant heat tied to the wire. We used the Ultra-Foil bubble insulation, which was recommended by Mark Deane who designed our layout for the heating system. It's supposed to be great for this purpose, plus it gives a radon barrier if that is ever a problem. I should note that we also put a pipe in to use for Radon for "just in case" also. That was one nice thing about the Form-a-Drain. They built a chute to use for the concrete as it will be coming down from pretty high.

| Around the bathroom - But not near the toilet as this will melt the wax seal. |

Well the back patio was poured on Nov. 2nd. Wayne and Spike built a block wall for the slab to set on to prevent any settling. Also in a last minute decision we put the PEX tubing in the slab in case sometime in the future we want to close it in and heat the area. I don't know that we'll do that, but for the small cost of the tubing I wouldn't want to regret it in the future.
Dave K and his crew came out today and put on the roof on the back porch. The post are vinyl with a steel insert. Worth the extra cost I think as there will be no upkeep. We also got a matching rail to put along the sides of the basement steps. The roof is right below our bedroom window which I don't like, but so worth it to have a covered porch! This was an add on from the plans.
They also put in the front door. I drove around a lot of new neighborhoods before settling on this one. All the doors were delivered last week. Taking advantage of a free solid core upgrade, I bought them all a little in advance.
Wayne and Spike finished the split face block which we used to cover the block. I think it looks very nice. Check it out...

The concrete steps were poured today. Now we can get out of the basement without climbing ladders. Because we put a 9 1/2' ceiling in the basement, there are a lot of steps coming out. They look great though! We still have to top the walls off with something as you can see in the pics.

The roof is on the main part of the roof is on. Instead of tarpaper, we used the Titanium Roof Underlayment. It was probably overkill, because we are not leaving the roof sit long before putting on the shingles and we have such a steep pitch (10/12). Also, they advertise that it's supposed to be easier to walk on, but the guys say it's not. But it's down now. In the pictures below you can see the roof and Brianna checking out the dormer in her new room, which is the "bonus room" over the garage we are using as a fourth bedroom.

The trusses have arrived. They were not supposed to come until the 15th, but I put a call in to request them early. They had a cancellation and were able to bring them today. After a quick scramble to make room for the truck to pull in, they arrived. For $90 an hour they sent a crane truck to set them in place. This is really the way to go because it took 4 1/2 hours for all the trusses to be set. This would have taken A LOT longer to set by hand. Well worth the money. Rain is forecasted for tomorrow :(

Wow! The second floor is on and the exterior walls are built. They won't do the interior walls until after the trusses are on. They'll be delivered on the 15th. The garage foundation was finished yesterday and the walls for it were built today. The past two days the block layers worked on the stairway coming out of the basement to the back yard.

It's starting to look like a house! The first floor walls are almost completely up. I can get a feel for the floor plan now. After months of looking at it on paper it's soooo exciting! I could actually walk through my house. The garage footers were poured this morning, as well as the footer for the steps walls out of the basement. So now the garage is on its way.

Well it's October, and we've started the framing stage! One day and the framers have almost all of the 1st floor deck on. It's starting to look like something from up above now. Dave K. is FAST! Dad, Wayne, and Spike worked LATE getting the footers for the garage ready for the concrete in the morning. Chase just loved the ditch. Yesterday Chase and Luke were playing in the foundation and pretending to be Wayne and Spike (our foundation guys). So cute!

Today the walls were filled with concrete, so now the house can be built on top. The framer is anxious to begin, so tomorrow morning at 7:30am the beams are being set in place. Nobody wants to coat the foundation. Three people later, it's done. We're adding the styrofoam to the outside of the walls for added insulation.

Well, I took a little break from picture taking. The walls are on their way up as you can see. One wall is complete, so we can get a feel of just how high they'll be. More room for the kids to play I guess. Fun, fun! It seems like the block is moving so slow, but I'm glad I have a block layer who is sure to get my foundation right!

The footers are laid and concrete was delivered. Let the building begin! I just had to include a picture of Chase. After the work was done, Chase was running through puddles and fell face first flat in the mud. Not very pleasant, but sooo funny once we knew he was okay.

I'm learning to accept unanticipated costs. The excavator (Dave), and block guy (Wayne), have decided that rather than just a French drain that goes into the tank, we need a daylight drain for the best drainage possible. I want a dry basement, but this meant digging a 10' trench about 160' long. Ugh! It was a busy day, and the septic tank was delivered. We'll have city sewer, but we need to pump it up to the street because we are lower than the sewage lines in the basement. The pic shows Dad guiding it in.

The hole is getting bigger. It's finally starting to look like a basement. After one side was dug, we decided it was too deep. (We wanted a 9' basement, not 10') So adjustments were made, but that hole is BIG!

The digging was progressing until we hit an old 12" gas line. The good news is that it is no longer used, but Dad saved the day and had to use torches to cut it in two different places so it could be removed. (The idea of a large pipe running through the basement wasn't very appealing.) After it was cut the excavator picked it right up and moved it out.

We're finally started! Today Dad worked with Dave V. (our excavator), and his worker to clear four LARGE spruce trees before we can start digging. Chase and Caroline each got a turn riding and controlling the excavator (with Dave), and they loved it!
