Our House Building: July 2006
http://robandelenorehouse.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Yesterday the backfilling was interrupted by rain, but we went to take pictures anyway. Most of the backfilling is complete and there seems to be a bit of extra dirt. They will need to take the extra dirt away. The next task it to put the grade beam in. That is what the garage sits on. They are a bit backed up on that, so we are not sure when that is going to happen. There probably won't be any updates now until the grade beam is done. Doesn't the house look nice?

Tuesday, December 19, 2006. Shingles and Framing Inspection. The other part that should be happening in these days is that the plumbers are back in the house putting in the in-floor heat into the basement. I would imagine with Christmas just around the corner that may be it until the new year. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 9:27 PM. Sunday, December 03, 2006.

Our House Building: November 2006
http://robandelenorehouse.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 02, 2006. It has been a while since our last post. It is much more difficult to get over to take pictures. It is dark by the time we get home from work, and we seem to be gone or very busy on the weekend. I left early from work today so I could go see what has happened at the house and take some pictures while it was still light outside. So I think that is about all that has happened in the house since the last time we posted. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 4:19 PM.

Wednesday, September 27, 2006. Rugby Players have Brawn, and Brains Too. You can see more of the house today. The piles of lumber are getting smaller. The scrap pile is small, but slowly becoming the biggest pile. My favorite part of construction is dealing with all the characters that build houses for our company. I am proud to be associated with these, and many other, great people. They are talented, hard working and want to do a good job every day. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 8:08 PM. One thin...

Wednesday, May 24, 2006. Well things are starting to happen now. We have a date for when the stakes will mark where the hole is supposed to be dug. That means that in a few more days, there will be hole there. This date is scheduled for June 5 and that is less than two weeks away. Now this is getting exciting. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 8:50 PM. Monday, May 08, 2006. I think it is going to make the house very warm and inviting on the inside. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 6:28 PM.

Thursday, October 12, 2006. Ross and Russ are completing a few last details with windows, doors and stairways. There are a few missing, so they will have to come back when those arrive. It's been a hard job, they have done well. It is time to get paid and move on. In the meantime, the plumbers have started. The pipes in the picture are in the basement. Normally you don't see these because they will end up under the concrete floor. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 9:14 PM. Wednesday, October 04, 2006.

Thursday, April 27, 2006. Just a quick note today. We know things are happening now. The city didn't like the size of our deck, so we have to make it a little smaller. At least we know things are happening. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 9:01 PM. Monday, April 17, 2006. This picture was taken a fewdays ago, with the snow and ice melted off. Out next door neighbours don't have a driveway yet, so they are using the lot for parking. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 7:03 AM. Wednesday, April 05, 2006.

Saturday, January 27, 2007. Pink on the Inside - Gone. Progress on the house over the last few weeks has been fun to watch. It is really nice to know that every day, we are a little closer to moving in. Posted by Mama Elf and Papa Bear at 5:31 PM. Sunday, January 14, 2007. Pink on the Inside, Upstairs. The other work that was done this week, was the in-floor heat for the main floor. We were in a show home last weekend with in-floor heat and I was happy the we made the decision to put it into our house.
