the brick finally gets put to use

we're not really sure what the hold up was but when they start to do something they really move fast. as you can see about 1/3 to 1/2 the house was finished in half a day.

the fancy details of the brick


you can huff and puff but you can't blow this house down anymore

a work in progress

this picture needs an explanation. as you could see in the past they drew the outlines of sinks, toilets, etc on the floor. cole was pointing out different stuff in the house and proceeded to tell us "this is the bathroom where i go in the potty" and then demonstrated in case there was any confusion.

the fireplace for all those cold oklahoma nights...or something
the insulating begins
the sheet rock is there. hopefully it won't sit as long as the brick did. cole enjoys it as is since he climbs on it the whole time we're there.

and the Lord said "let there be light"

and it was good. they put in all the wiring for lights and outlets. they also drew on our floor but it's kind of nice to help the visualization process.

our heat/air attic monster


bub's in his room. he's pretty excited even though all he has right now is his window. he loves his window cause he can see "cambry and chandler's" (the neighbor girls)

once again seems small on the floor till it comes to life. welcome to our kitchen.

uh-oh somebody broke a window. i told them not to play catch in the house. just kidding.

we got doors and windows....we wanted the burglars to have something to kick in

so far they have the roof almost finished. you can see them still hard at work and it's after 7 pm. they put in the windows and doors...well not the real doors but "construction doors" as paul and dan tell me. good thing cause they are uuuuuugly.
that's a nice booty huh

first pic in front of the fireplace. sure to be repeated for christmases and special occasions to come
bath time. they did most of the plumbing too.
