Finally New Stuff

We have had a productive week at the Bishop (half a) house hold.

First we had our concrete poured for Justin's massive garage.....




We also had our footings poured.....


As soon as the concrete was ready the garage began to take shape.....


Sims Masonry laid the block for the rest of the fondation.....
This will be our front porch



This will be the Master bedroom, closets and bath



Still the Bedroom



What will be added to the Kitchen to make room for dining room

The extra bedroom


Justin's little workroom (plus stairs to bonus room)



Lastly I want to show you the supervisor of the project............
she sits and watches everyday

Shrinking Houses, Great Friends and Cake

When I got home from work yesterday this is what I found.......
  

This is what was left of the front of our house. ( you can't tell it but there is actually new wood there too)

This is what was our front living room.



When the chimney came out we were left with this lovely hole :)

Our old master bedroom


The guest bedroom


From the kitchen looking into the back room, (what we called the futon room)


 The back room/futon room.......

Our lovely kitchen window :)


Other than the remodeling I also got away to spend time with my BFF's Saturday morning (no pics, sorry). From there I went over to my good friend Bethany's house to assist with a Bridal Shower cake....





I was pretty impressed if I must say so my self. Beth did a great job with this one but she did have a good supervisor ;).

Where We "Aren't" Living

Okay so according to our insurance company a camper cannot be a temporary residence. Therefore here is a pic of where we are under no circumstances, absolutely not living ;)


I will post pics of the inside (where we only store things) later today.

Making Progress

Okay, I think I left you with an update saying we were closing last Friday. Well we did. Then came the work!!!!!

Here is the before shot.......

Justin started to tear off the shingles.......




While I packed.....

and packed


After five days of rushing around to get out this is what we have so far......





















 Our poor house, its not even a house any more. It is nerve racking to see it come down so fast but I can't wait to start adding the new stuff!!!!
