Moving along

The top slab of the garage got poured today. The weekend of August 10th, Sheldon and I had to fill in all of the voids between the hollow core concrete slabs with a finer aggregate concrete. It took us a long time to do, but we had to do that so that it was completely filled in before the larger aggregate concrete was poured. 

And they did the front porch slab! Also do you see that first widow installed? Sheldon picked out the windows and they are very nice. Sandstone is the color he went with. As of last week (8/19-23) all of the windows and doors were installed in the house.
The framers have been working hard on getting soffit and fascia put up on the house. All they have left is the peak of the garage to do before roofers can start!
 The "Brains" of the Operation on the Roof!

The roof also got "blacked in" today. The felt paper is down and the shingles will go up next. We had to pick out the shingle color and I never dreamed there would be so many options. It's a very neutral brown tone shingle.
