Well, for now. Sit down, pour a drink, because I have an exciting update. Well, exciting for us, and maybe semi-exciting for you, if you're sitting in a cube, like me.
We've gotten so used to things moving at a glacial pace, and you know how that thrills me, (name that movie) I was putting all my eggs in the foundation basket for Sunday's visit. I squealed when I saw this.
First floor framing!
From the back of the house looking forward.
We can take showers!
First floor guest room window. No, that' not a Coors Light box. Trust me, I zoomed in to check.
On that subject, let me interrupt for a PSA on appropriate construction zone drinks.
APPROVED. Lord knows we are on a tight deadline. Give me a month and I might be bringing you a case myself.
DENIED. I'm not sponsoring your house party. Also, who drinks beer while eating candy?
Needless to say, we were pretty pumped. Are you singing Vogue in your head now, too? Just me?
While being neighborly and making sure the houses a little farther along were making good progress as well, we ran across this on one houses steps.
23
If the LORD delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm;
24
though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
133
Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me.
134
Redeem me from the oppression of men, that I may obey your precepts.
Good reminders. There is more to creating a home than picking the right shade of grey and matching cabinets and counter tops.

YA HOOO!!! Love this progress...and jealous of the tan MS has going.
I wanted to do a "stud signing" so badly with verses like that when we were building, but I missed it and it was sheet rocked before I could rally the troops.
So excited for y'all! I love reading these posts and seeing all the pics. I'm living vicariously through you and Matt. We will have to have alternating cook-outs this fall once we're all settled in each of our new homes (well, mine will be old, but you know what I mean!). =)
The Devil Wears Prada! Also, thanks for posting the Beer-ga-rita recipe because it's officially my favorite drink EVER. I had no idea what I was missing.
