We've got stairs!!!

So things are moving along at warp speed. Most of the demolition downstairs is done, and the guys are finished with just about all of the framing for the downstairs offices, closets, and hallways.
They poured concrete for the downstairs post to support the second story, and now they're putting in stairs!!

Check it out (new toy - Flickr slideshow!)

Demo Demo Demo!

Lots of demolition going on... here's some pics!

So...... it's been a little while since last we blogged...

Yeah.

We know.

We stink at blogging.

But we have Facebook, Twitter (well, only Kristin has a Twitter account), email (which I am horribly behind on)... .

The excuse, as always, is that we've been busy... planning our second story!

Yes, we have finally broken ground on the much-planned and much-discussed second story to our house. What was once going to be a simple master bedroom over the garage has metamorphosed into a second story of epic proportions. Master bedroom suite, two more bedrooms, an extra bathroom, and TONS of room for books and guests!
