Today we visited the site to see the start of framing. Our massive skylight has grown and now unveils 80% of the house. It's really quite a sensation to see the sky from virtually every room. There's something to camping, isn't there? We're just happy it's not rainy season and hoping we don't get unseasonable rain. They've started putting up what I think are called floor joists for the second floor - you can see them over the kids rooms.


So far, they're saving our precious handprints in the nursey. I don't have a lot of hope (and I do have good pictures), but just maybe they'll survive the project.
Mom and Dad Gropper came with me and walked through the open house. You can see them in the dining room staring out into the family room. We do have nice trees and blue skies. I'm thankful for both. I suspect that over the next week or two, the house will begin to take shape and that will be very exciting. Stay tuned.
