And our FAVORITE feature is...

When we looked at house plans, no matter what we did, we kept coming back to the same plan or versions extremely similar.  Why?  Because there was one feature that we just plain LOVED.  What is it you ask: Well it's the back living room and windows.    We had to capitalize on the beautiful view of the pond out the back of the house.  This wall of windows just called to us over and over again.  Well today it went up and it already looks phenomenal!  I can't wait to enjoy the view while sitting in my living room.  

Here it is all put together and ready to go!

 Hooking it up for it's ride.
 Going Up...

 And up...
 And up some more...
 Almost there!


 And it's in! 


 Isn't it beautiful!!!???!!!

My favorite!!!!








Still Goooooing UP!

Second story here we go! The girls just got bedrooms and they are so excited. Lyndsy still tells me that she wants the one overlooking the pond but every now and then that bigger closet makes her stop to rethink her decision. Oh well, till it's done she will have made up her mind. (I'm pretty sure she'll choose the pond.)




Don't worry about the huge gap in the middle. It's coming just not done yet.

The Mechanics of it all...

I don't understand it all but I do understand that this mess of tubes is why I will have warm and toasty piggies!  Here is our tubing for the radiant heat and our beautifully smooth basement floor.  It took forever to get the concrete poured but the Amish guys did a great job!!!!
