Oh so slowly we are making progress on the new house. John and I spent about 4 hours over there on Sunday, in the wind and rain, getting one step closer to the addition starting. We worked on cutting the bottom 10 inches of stucco out so the new floor joists can butt up to the existing frame. You can see it in the back of this picture. This porch, with the addition, will eventually be out master bedroom.
Out back the footings are poured and we worked on cutting stucco out here as well.
Lilly's room is done with the exception of the closet doors and cleaning up the wood floors.
Lucy's room is getting closer. I need to get at least 2 coats on her trim and paint the closet doors as well. Both kids rooms need the ceiling fans installed and all of the outlets changed out.
My kitchen pantry is framed and dry walled! The pocket door is painted and hung too!
Free time to work on the house is something John and I have very little of. We continue to do as much as we can on our own, with the help of my parents. We are hopeful we can get it wrapped up in the next four months!
