Framing: The First Day

Framing on the house began today, and I must admit, I am really surprised at how much they have accomplished today. Here is a picture of the progress so far today:

Ok, so I was just kidding on that one, so pick your jaw up off the floor and lets look some actual pictures of the house!

Here are some pictures of the front taken from the street. We decided to go ahead and upgrade to the optional maze/jungle gym installed in the garage. Oh, what? Those pieces are just bracing the walls for now? That's disappointing. 

Picture of the back of the house, and the back porch. 

Picture of Emily in the kitchen. I took this picture while sitting on the couch. I think Emily had gotten up to get me another beer. 

More to come soon.....
