And the construction continues...

We have had construction guys in our house for weeks now.

They broke through the old inside wall the other day.

Now they are all inside our house.

Our old wood deck was torn out on July 18... so that's when all this started. Rather than being bothered by dust and dirt, I am enjoying not having to clean the house :) No complaining here, because when the construction is over and they are GONE it will be awesome. We are blessed! And the construction guys are all nice ~ no scary grim reaper-types have showed up or anything.

Is it wrong to give your construction guys cookies and popsicles and bananamelons?

Here are the most recent pics:

The munchkins ate lunch next to the big opening where the old sliding door used to be
while the construction guys put in our new door
The old room

Bye-bye side bricks and carpet!

Jason and Josh helped with the demo - supervised by one of the Broncos of course :)


Ooh, it is growing!

And the roof over the patio is here

Yesterday the roof paper stuff was put on and the electricians worked their magic. Today we will have inspections from the city peeps, and drywall and siding are on our schedule early next week. Somewhere in there the roofers will come back and finish the roof too. Things sure do move quickly here in constructionland :-D

I understand that if you are not our family or close friends these construction updates may be super boring to you. Sorry about that. It is not boring to us! I suppose it may also be boring for our family and close friends too... oh well! The project is scheduled to be finished by October 10... (and the port-a-potty in our front driveway will be gone then too ~ that little update is for our neighbors tee hee hee). This is less than two weeks from now ~ YAHOO!!!!

And next week... during the drywall and siding days... we have a birthday...

Someone who is turning 3 is super-excited!!!

(((hugs))),

    Try giving beer to your workers, on their way out for the day!
