Contruction Updates

The construction on the new playroom is cruising along well. After a slow start due to a snowy and freezing weekend it is nice to see some faster progress. Shannon and his dad did manage to get two walls built during that freezing weather though which is quite impressive! All the walls are up now, the electrical is almost done, and they will be working on the roof today. I will be excited when it is all enclosed with the roof and windows and doors. The inside of our house is a wreck with sheets covering our stuff and lots of dust everywhere!! Here are some pictures of the progress:

Shannon's dad being funny. =P

The back of the house from the inside... eeek!

We had a little delay in progress when they took the siding off of the back of the house. Apparently whoever installed it last didn't do a very good job and water was seeping in. There was a lot of rotted wood (this is a main support wall) that the guys had to cut out and replace. It was also scary because evidently the outlet in that wall was sparking and burning the insulation due to a cut wire (from the botched siding install). It was a fire waiting to happen!

All the walls are up and awaiting a roof!
