Nov. 24th & 25th
On Monday, the concrete was poured for the basement
and the garage was poured on tuesday.
We started assembling garage doors on Thursday.
We took time out of our busy day to enjoy Thanksgiving with family and be very thankful for all the wonderful help we have had on the house thus far...including the help we had on Thanksgiving Day.
I was especially thankful for my wonderful husband... Happy Birthday Honey!!
Nov. 8th and 9th
It's amazing what one week will do to the Minnesota weather. Once again we were cleaning snow out of our house. We will now have to modify some of our plans to abide by the weather.
The wind has been our worst enemy. It has delayed shingling, sheathing, and makes for terribly cold working conditions.
Because of snow on the roof, we had to hold off on shingling, so we finished the wall sheathing and started the house wrap.
Are we still having fun? ...
Yep!It's been great getting together
with friends while still
making accomplishments.
We appreciate everyone's help!
On Monday, the concrete was poured for the basement
Added housewrap all the way up..
and all the way around.
Doors & windows are covered so we really shouldn't have to shovel snow out of our house again.
Started working on the in-floor heat for basement & garage in the evenings.

We started the shingling process last thursday.
Angles, Angles, Angles!
The weather was absolutely beautiful on the weekend.
When we finished up Sunday night, we had 1/2 of the house shingled.
Monday the wind gust prevented us from working but on tuesday Nov. 4th we fought the wind and put up a few more shingles.
Because of our wonderful friends that came to help, we were able to get lots of work done and have fun too!! 
Is he working or playing?!
