Week 9, Day 61 - Snow Day!

Well, ok...my girl came home from school due to the preponderance of lake-effect snow. So it was a snow day for her. But the framers kept right on workin! And the windows arrived! Apparently the window/door truck *barely* made it up the driveway! WooHoo for steep driveways in the winter! :-P






Notice the window guy practicing the "duck and cover" there in the doorway? well...


The guy on the roof was raking all the snow down on top his head! It was pretty funny!




Our new front door!


That is a long stinkin' way up there!




We have stairs!


First view out our new windows!


And on the main level too!

Gorgeous Jim, absolutely gorgeous!!! I'm jealous, which I know isn't something I should be, but I can't deny it!! I love love love this house, can I borrow the plan? :-)

Jenn! I can't believe it's been this long since I checked this for updates. Last time I remember checking the county was having the road out front paved and was holding anyone from finishing the driveway. WOW!!

I agree! I don't like the the 12 or shorter overhangs... especially with that size house and the height.. the drip you want to keep away. Looking gorgeous Jennifer and Jim. only out matched by your beautiful family all together now!

Wow! The house is really coming along!

Our "Scrapbook"

I've never been proficient at scrapbooking, but I wanted a way of capturing the building of our new home. A blog is the perfect way for two "techies" to accomplish the artistry of capturing memories.

We moved from the Midwest to the East Coast in October 2008. We found our building site in November 2008, and broke ground in October 2009.

Henceforth, The Building of Blackthorn Ridge.
