Insulation, Stone and more!

It's been an interesting and stressful past month with all the rough ins for the house.  When you are as particular about things as Brian and I are, we have a tendency to cause problems for the sub-contractors.  We don't mean to, but building a house from scratch, we wanted to make sure that things were where we wanted them so we didn't regret it later.  That can be frustrating for our builder and all his folks that work for him.  For that, we apologize and I'm so glad we are past the rough-in phase!  Now, on to the fun stuff!!

In the past week some exciting stuff has been happening at the house!  We have stone around the front door now and today we stopped by and they have been laying the flagstone on the front porch!  They have also been working on the columns on the front porch.



On the back screened in porch, they have been working on the ceiling.  I absolutely love the ceiling!  It still needs to be painted, but you get the idea!



During the past week, they have been working on insulation and the insulation inspection was Friday and it passed.  So, things are moving along!

On Friday, Ms. Betty, Brian and I met with the flooring and tile ladies at Preferred Flooring in Raleigh.  They were so much fun to work with and we LOVE the selections we made!  I wish I would have remembered to take pictures, but I will post pics when the tile, hardwoods and carpet go in. 

Thanks again to our great builder and his team!  We appreciate everything you guys are doing and we are loving our new home already!  Next to come - lighting selections!  Have a great weekend, everyone!
