One small board for Jeff, one huge board for the house project

The first floor boards are in! Lots has been happening this last month, mostly on the outside as the yard was graded and grass planted. The electrical stuff has also been moving along, so we're getting close to having power. But now Jeff is starting on the flooring, a monumental project for sure. He's starting in the kitchen so that the cabinets can be installed as soon as he has made enough progress.








Also, here are some pictures of my work in architecture school, in case anyone was curious about what I do in studio all the time.

A 3D project... this one only took about 50 hours, 36 of which were spent in one weekend...

Sketches for my current project, an object analysis. That's the handle of a caulk gun, in honor of the house project. Several people in my class had no idea what a caulk gun is!

And the green grass grows all around, all around

I know all of you readers have been waiting a while for updates. Since I am now separated from the site, the camera, and the photos unless someone is kind enough to email me, I haven't had much to put up for you. But that will just make this post even more dramatic and exciting, as lots of progress has been made.

WE HAVE GRASS!

And you can even mow our grass, that's how much we have.

Jonathan and Jeff grading the yard and preparing it.


Isn't it beautiful?


The before.


And the after!
In other house news, the painting continues. Only two bathrooms and the inside of the stairwell to go.


And you can see in the corner of this photo, the kitchen cabinets have arrived. If anyone wants to help put the hardwood flooring in the kitchen so they can be installed...


Electrical progress continues as well. This is part of getting service to the new house.

Enjoy the photos! Hopefully we get more soon involving hardwood flooring and paint!
