It's been over a week since my last post and things have really been moving along with the house!

On Friday, April 27, they started electrical and had it mostly finished yesterday when we went by the see the house.

Safety first!

It was fun to see all the little blue boxes appear throughout the house.

Friday was a busy day for our house because our brick arrived as well. The color we selected is called Charleston Used. The "used" part of the name refers to the process the brick goes through before being delivered. Basically, they put the brick into a big dryer style bin and tumble it around to give the edges a more "used" or smooth look. It's going to be great on the house!

On Monday, May 1 we had some nasty weather here in mid-MO so they were unable to start the laying the brick but they did continue to work inside on the wiring and started to insulate as well.

Then on Tuesday the sky parted and the sun came out so they made progress on preparing to start the brick work.

This week we assume we'll see the brick front completed, completed wiring and insulation inside, and hopefully they will get a garage door put on!

Next project: selecting paint colors and lights. Stay tuned for updates!
