Full Speed Ahead!

Its been awhile since our last post and with the speed this house is being built, much has progressed. All of the windows are now installed, including the basement windows. Most of the windows are fantastic but there are a few windows - particularly the guest bedroom - I wish we had thought through the placement, size and configuration more. The view of our neighbors isn't partiularly the best view but the size of the window is not going to make it easy - or cheap - to cover with blinds. Its going to be Ikea drapes for us...

Plumbing has gone in. Our watertiles are roughed-in in the master bath. The guest bath tub is in place. Its the Archer tub from Kohler...more modern than I originally thought. I like the lines and the slotted overflow.

HVAC is also being run as well as wiring for our security system and the in-ceiling speakers. Secure-Tec Protection installed both security and audio lines. Joe from Kelzer Electric has been working hard all week installing fixtures and moving stuff all around for me.

The front patio return was built within the last few days. We had some inconsistencies on the plan which caused confusion with the builders but they got it fixed quickly. It looks great and will be nice to hide the mailbox from general view.
