Hickory Floors have arrived!

Our hickory flooring was delivered yesterday, and after only looking at if for a few minutes, I am in love.  These boards are absolutely gorgeous with plenty of character and uniqueness!  Now if we can only get the duct work guy to finish up, get that last tub in place and get our rough in inspection we can move on to insulation, drywall and this floor!  This is going to be in the Living room, the Master bedroom, and the nursery! :)

HVAC Being Installed

We're finally getting somewhere with the Heating and Air system now.  All of the equipment has been delivered and the duct work is now going in place.  Hopefully by next week it will be completely roughed in!  I'm ready to move on to insulation and drywall!

Waiting on HVAC

So... last time I left you, it appears the siding still wasn't finished, the plumbing wasn't completed, the electrical still had some ways to go and the HVAC guy was MIA.  Good news!  The siding is now finished!  LOL!  Things seem to be moving SO SLOW right now and it's very stressful.  Jeffrey and I took a week off for a quick trip to the mountains and a work conference for me in Greensboro, and we are no where near where I had hoped to be by now.  We are still trying to pick out a gas powered tank less hot water heater and once we do that Bracy can finish up his rough-in.  Paul is on vacation this week, so hopefully when he returns we'll finish up the electrical rough in.  As far as the HVAC guy - we met with him on Monday.  It turns out they weren't able to run the duct work like we had hoped, and it put them behind trying to figure out the best way to get they system to work properly.  The duct work guy, Mike, is supposed to be on site right now installing the first of it.  I'll find out this afternoon if he really came or not.  So for now, all I can leave you with are pictures of the house, taken as is, mess and all.  Hope you enjoy.
The siding looks good!  We just have to get those white doors painted or stained a different color! 


 Shot into the basement standing in one of the garage door openings.  Boy it's messy down here!
 
 Plumbing is in for the washing machine and bathroom - the bathtub down here will go in last since the plumbing chase will be hidden behind it!
 
 Standing where I hope to one day have my dining room table, looking back into the kitchen area.  That's the back door open on the right.
 
 Standing in the same spot as above, just looking more towards the front door this time.

 This is taken from the Master Bedroom looking back towards the hallway.  That's the nursery on the right, and the bathroom and closet on the left behind those walls.
 
 This is the view looking down from the loft.  Not to bad ;)
 
 The bonus room upstairs, which I'm quickly trying to claim as my craft room.  I love the layout and shape of this room with the ceilings and built in cabinet plans!
 
Back on the loft looking across it to the top of the stairs.  That's the front yard through those windows.
 

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door! :)
