In the past couple days, the interior of the second floor has been framed completely, the roof has gone up, and the decking has all been put on the roof. The room over the garage was also started. Things seem like they are moving pretty quickly.
We have to pick out our roof, siding and stone colors soon. It is really hard! Especially trying to figure out what the colors will look like on an entire house or roof, when all you get is a tiny one inch sample of the color! We are hoping to go tomorrow to another neighborhood that has the same kind of siding that we are getting, so that we can see how the colors look on entire houses. That should be a big help.
Some pictures...
Roof is on!

This is the room over the garage. It will be our master closet and an unfinished attic area.

The front left bedroom - doorways in pictures are the closet and the door to the Jack-n-Jill bathroom.

The back left bedroom, which will be Cam's. Doorway to the shared bathroom is on the left.

Cheeeeeese!

Tim decided to climb up in the trusses.

Cam and Mama work on measuring a sheet of OSB. Cam LOVES to measure things in the new house - it keeps him occupied for a long time.

SO exciting! I cannot wait to see it all finished, and better yet, to come visit! :)
Nice! I know how hard it is to pick out colors for siding and shingles. I sent my shingles back because the color looked so different than what I picked and almost did the same with the siding except that my contractor showed me a bigger sample of the siding before he ordered not wanting me to return as I did with the shingles. :) The color looked so much different on the bigger sample.
Looks like you're going to have quite a place there. Hope to have the chance to see it in 3D before you it's time to remodel!
