In case you couldn’t tell from the title of this post, we have now walls. ALL of our exterior walls are up!
Our water lines and electric are also run. I have an adorable little water pump out in the backyard where we will eventually put our vegetable garden so that we can connect a hose way out there. The front yard has also been graded and the footers for the front and back porches were going in.
On Monday we got to go to a kitchen and bath design center and chose our tubs, showers, and bathroom faucets. Our roof trusses are also being delivered this week and our kitchen cabinets are scheduled to be delivered into storage. (Ikea only delivers once a month to this area and if we waited until next month we would be past 90 days from the date of purchase since we bought them back in April during the kitchen sale. After 90 days they won’t accept returns, so if there is a mistake with the order we wouldn’t be able to fix it. Looks like Eddie’s going to be spending the next few weeks putting cabinets together inside of a storage unit…)
This is what the front of the house looked like on Monday afternoon:
and this is the back:
It’s starting to feel real now!
