Roof!!

So it's been a while. Between losing photos and cameras and wisdom teeth I've been slacking. But a lot has happened to our house. We now have heating and air, a roof, pluming, electricity, and a garage floor. We also now have shingles but I don't have a picture yet. I should soon though!  And, today I might have spotted the insulation truck at the house. Exciting!!

Our porch cement was laid

We got arches upstairs

This is the back porch. Look at the rock stair case!


We got the fireplace!

Up and up!

We now have framework for the upstairs! We also have a porch and soon we will have stairs which is a good thing because at the moment it's a dusty dirty business getting to the basement.

Here are some pictures of the house so far:





This is the front of the house which is being covered by lots of wood for the roof!



This is the back of the house. More affectionately known as the wall of windows :)


And this is the best part of the house. This picture doesn't nearly give this view justice. It is gorgeous!

Until next week!

Dirt, more dirt, 2 weeks....



Well our basement finally has a good view!! Lots and Lots of dirt later we finally have a walk out basement. It's gorgeous! We also have our basement almost entirely framed. In fact they are starting framing the upstairs this week.

Here's some pictures!

Week 3

A lot happened this week. We got all the plumbing done for the basement, got window wells, and we now have a completed basement floor! Here are the new pictures:

They brought in a "rock slinger" which is basically a conveyor belt that shoots out gravel. It was way cool! Though I didn't have my camera so this is a phone picture...



And here are week 3 pictures from today:

 (Our mound of dirt is still there in both the front and the back....)





Well that's it for this week. I'm pretty sure that next week we will have some frame work done!!

The Start

The Mitton Family is moving up in the world... or just up the street. We bought a beautiful lake lot over a year ago and are finally building on it. We went to 2 parade of homes in the past two years looking at houses and getting ideas. Well we finally have a plan drawn out and ready to get going. I'm so excited!!! The hole was dug last week and sadly I didn't get a picture of it so we are starting at week 2.

After a great family vacation at yellowstone we come back to a drastic change from just a hole to having foundation! Here's week 2:


This is as front of a view as I could get. There happens to be a huge mountain of dirt in the front so this is more front-right corner which is the garage area:



This is from the right side which is also garage


This is the back storage area and past that (where all the ducts are) is the recital hall. Past that is the bedrooms and living room



Well that's what it looks like this week :)
