Little house on the prairie...

This is a post that have been meaning to post for A VERY LONG LONG TIME! So the beginning of this year Chris and I broke ground on our first home together (we didn't break the ground ourselves... in case you were confused). But I have been taking pictures of our little home week by week so we could document the growth of our home. so I thought that I would post them....
Week 1
[this is our fine fine hole]

There is a lot of dirt on our property because when they dug the hole for the house next to use, they put their dirt on our property...

[our hole again]

Week 2

[we have a foundation]

Week 3

the only thing that happend during week three is our foundation dried... and to the enjoyment of watching cement dry... I didn't take any pictures.

Week 4

[we got one wall, a floor and our basement framed!]

Week 5

[bam we have a house, that fast]

[our garage from the entry door][the garage entry from the garage steps][this is our family room]

[do a 180 and here is the kitchen, the pantry is framed]

[what it looks like from the front door]

[living room, right off the front door]

[half bathroom and closet]

[and the upstairs... but the stairs have not been installed yet]

[and this is in our garage, microwave and hot plate (not included with our house**sad face**)]

this is all I feel like posting right now... I got this far and got bored and realized that this was a very long boring post... but I wanted to have this to look back on. Maybe I will finish later.

It's coming along. It's amazing how fast they CAN do it, but how often they are LATE to finish. Congrats on getting a fresh, new, truly yours, house; it will be worth all the headaches of these few months.
