The chimney is taller and survived the furious winds last night.

A different angle and view.

Starting to put brick on the fireplace.

It's pretty along the wall. I wanted the brick for this outdoor room a more rustic look. 

The name is Williamsburg-I didn't think I could go wrong with that.

A little more siding, I like the way it angles down at the bottom.

Where the TV and Phone wires come together.

TV is black, Phone is blue. Lots of TV wires....

we like to stay connected to the world.

These haven't totally found a home yet.

The fuse boxes have arrived though.

It looks like a lot of work goes on in this garage.

The Daylilies are Blooming!

I decided one day I wanted daylilies in this spot.

So I kept scouring Lowes and Meijer for different colors.

I succeeded in finding 5 different ones.

They are not any trouble to take care of.

I love the balloon flowers.

A mother robin built her nest in the crabapple tree this year.

The butterfly bush is flowering just fine.  I have faith that the butterflys are finding it.  I very rarely see one on it.

I have a nosy tag-a long.

This one I usually have to walk around because he is oblivious to anyone else in the area.

I always enjoy this path going to the backyard. 

It will be fun to figure out the landscaping and flowers for the new house.

The fireplace is coming along nicely!

It looks like the terra cotta doodads got set up through the ceiling today, to make the......

Chimney!  There is one sitting on top holding that wood.  Doesn't the chimney look great?

There are lots of wires hanging everywhere, it is amazing to me how they get them all hooked up and working.

I haven't added any pictures for a few days,

but sit back, I have quite a few now.

The bricklayers are putting together the masonry fireplace in the outdoor room.

Here is a better farther away picture.

These terre cotta doo dads make up the chimney.

The back of the house is pretty much done with the siding.

It looks fabulous!

Here is the end with the sunroom.

Very Nice!

Around the corner.

And on to the front.

The front of the garages are also done.

This picture just shows the true color of the brick.

I think that this is just a great feature.

Lights down the stairway.

There will be three.

This is the basement ejector pit.

This is the alarm for the basement ejector pit.

Because.....if your ejector pit quits working

you're in deep you know what!

As you can tell, this is a furnace...Steve the Builder

said heat was included.

Wires, wires everywhere, but can't turn on a light.

I think we have a bad mole problem.

I wish someone would have told us about this.

Seriously....I think this was some kind of hook up.

Sam, we can tell you are gone.

You keep the place tidy!

I think the heat has gotten to our cat Sebastian.

He looks like one of those dead raccoons, bloated on the side of the road.

It's a bit overwhelming

This is my craft room right now.  I have been trying to organize and pack

things up.  I am making progress even though this picture

doesn't look like it.  My husband Tom is so organized and has

no problem getting his "stuff" packed.  I'm just trying to chip

away at it a little at a time.  This is a pretty scary site isn't it?

Can you find the one item that is actually alive here?

W.I.P.

Here Are some images of my Works in Progress.

This is a Memorial Quilt of victims of CJD or Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.

Our Mother passed away from this.

A Watercolor painting.

A wallhanging that I am ready to put the border on.

I am anxious to share the finished product.

We are not a lost house now.

The siding makes all the difference.  This is called Almond.

One side of the garage done with the added keystone.

Around the windows looks very pretty.

The Brick on this section is, for the most, part done.

Very Pretty

The garage got started on friday.

The 115 gallon water heater was installed.
