The Dallas clan came to town for our baby shower this past weekend. After the festivities we took a quick drive to the construction site. I’m still amazed at how much gets completed each week. The builder recently finished installing windows, A/C units, duct work, and capped it off with a roof! Here are a few pics of the family out front.

The weather in Houston was pretty bad today, so I was only able to get a few shots of the framing. Will post more when the lot dries out a bit and I take a few more pics. Can’t wait to drink some lemonade on that front porch!!! Click to view larger image.

Here are a few shots we took when the lot was dry.
Shelley checks out her new kitchen…
She is standing behind the framing for the island.

Here’s our stairway…
The doorway on the left leads to our master bedroom, guest bath, and nursery.

This is the back patio. We modified the plans to cover it with a roof.
Since the pier/beam foundation is 36 inches off the ground, the patio
has a really cool vaulted feel.

On Monday morning, David Weekley’s engineering company approved our sub-floor, so today the first floor is beginning to take shape! It’s amazing how much these guys can accomplish in just a few hours.
Here’s what it looked like this afternoon…

And this is my new favorite view…

Here’s a sequence of pics to get you up to speed.
