Our hole grew a house

I actually had put up some photos on Shutterfly a while ago, but this is the first oppurtunity I have had to blog about it. If you haven't already, please check out the pics by clicking on the photos link to the left.

After being busy for a couple of weeks, we actually received an email from the builder with our last change order. In the body of the message, there was mention that our house is coming along quite quickly. We decided that we better go and check out the site before we miss something! That night we headed out and as we were driving by we saw that a house had grown without us knowing it! We pulled in front of the place that would be our new home. Almost all of the framing has been done! This was a huge shock! Where there once was only a hole in a lot there now was a house. We were a bit excited, but dissapoiunted at the same time. We felt like we had missed so much of the process, but at the same time, we were thrilled that our house was coming along nicely!

Again, we haven't been back to see the progress since the begining of the month. We are going to try and get there at some point over the next few days, as we just received another email from our builder. I guess the site supervisor had some bad news for us. The exterior lights we chose were too wide for either side of our garage, so we are going to have to make some changes in those. It sucks, because I really did like the lines of the ones we chose. So now we are going with a more cage like light that is still modern, but has a more classic feel than the boxy ones we chose previously. Now along with this dissapointment comes the fact that we may have missed some major points of our house, if we are having to scamble with exterior lights! We are just too busy for our own good!
