While we were away on vacation for a week in Florida, the drywall was finished and the painter completed priming the whole interior of the house. The ceilings and closets have been fully primed and painted as of this afternoon. The hardwood floors were delivered last week and will be installed on Monday. Bob (Lesley's dad) is here through tomorrow for Easter, will drive back in the afternoon and be back here on Tuesday to lead us in building and setting the cabinetry for the whole house. We hope to have it done in a week. It will involve a lot of long hours but I am really looking forward to putting some sweat equity into this house. Again, the new progress is always so impressive and enjoyable to see. Every new visit is a treat. We continually feel blessed and privileged to be building our own home.
Above and below are shots of the playroom - Noah's future domain. Its so bright.
Above and below are hallway shots that really show the detail of the drywall work. It turned out so well, which is important in such a clean lined, modern house.
Last February we (mostly me) had the crazy idea of building a home in our great city - Chicago. After some research and figuring, we decided it was somewhat doable. With a lot of prayer and some perseverance, our dream is on its way to being realized.
