UPDATE!!


Here is the LATEST update on our house.  

  • Our basement bedroom window is in, secure, and workable!
  • The window well has been installed and looks beautiful
  • Our basement is completely framed- Lance's uncle came over for 2 mornings and threw up all of the walls that we need.  He has been such a help and resource for us. 
  • Flue pipe hole has been CUT - so when we under went our first inspection the inspector told us our water heater vent pipe was illegal (b/c we moved it).  Apparently there is a law as to how long the pipe can travel horizontally to the water heater.  We moved the water heaters to make room for our stairs and in doing so went from legal to illegal.  SO we had to drill a hole through the 10 inch cement wall in order to be legal again.  Lance spent a few hours with a drill making that happen.
  • Stair Banister (upstairs)- the main landing poles and the bottom trim is nailed/screwed in place.  Next is to stain and then install the little poles that people sometimes get their heads stuck in. 
 We had such a fun week in California for Nicole's graduation.  Although we didn't see much of Nicole at the beginning of the week it was fun for the family to go to Universal Studios and as a whole get nauseated at Six Flags the following day.  We ended up leaving Six Flags a few hours early and Lance and I (who took nausea medicine) PASSED OUT asleep for the rest of the night until the following morning.
