Plaster is up

I believe this is just the first round of plaster, which means hopefully we'll be painting next week.

Chicken Wire What?

Getting ready to put on the stucco

Yep, there is chicken wire on the house. Didn't see that one coming. 

Dry Wall is Up

The walls started to close in on us and we're so excited!

Drywall is up throughout the entire house. This is the great room.

Framing Up Top

Framing is just getting wrapped up. We only wish the whole thing could come together this quickly.

Jen thought that my freaky long arm span would be a good way to measure the back yard 

A Floor ... Kinda

Its a floor and a ceiling



Basement Framing

Good to see another element besides rebar and cement being added to the equation

We do wish we had a slightly bigger yard, but at least now we know its big enough to fit a cement truck

Walls of a Sort

Foundation walls are going up.

Finding a Lot

It took some convincing to get Jennie on Board with Saratoga Springs. A community on the west side of Utah Lake, but once we saw this plot we both started to warm up to the idea a lot more. This corner lot is backed with a large park and will maintain views of the lake from the front and side.

Our lot is just over the fence you see here. We're sitting on a small hill in the park behind it. This picture shows all the dirt they've already dug up for the foundation & basement
