Week 9: Scaffolding and some extra pics

So, this weekend on our visit, we saw that the scaffolding was up and ready for hubby for Monday morning to brick up the second story. Roofing is also booked in for Tuesday after the Easter Long Weekend. Kinda in love with the new place already even though it is no where near finished. This is so exciting and I just cant wait until it is complete!

Week 8.2: More Bricks!

Bricking continues as hubby does his best to get as much done as quickly as possible.

Starting to finally look like a house!

Cant wait to move in - I'm already picturing where my current existing furniture would go.

Week 8.1: Bricking Begins!

So this afternoon was a great afternoon despite it being so gloomy throughout the day.

Hubby was on site today to brick up!

He sent me some snaps this afternoon that I was so happy to see!

Once the brickwork is done and the roof is on, it will definitely start to look more like a house!

Week 7: Upstairs & Roof Framing

This week, upstairs and roof framing was complete!

Didn't get a chance to take any photo's as I was super excited when I got the the site that I forgot my phone in the car! Then once I jumped back into the car it got dark so there was really no point.

Been so busy at work lately that I haven't had much time to concentrate on what has been happening with the build. This week, the brickies (my hubby) will be on site to start bricking up. He has been so excited and actually can't wait to start!

I really cannot wait until this section of the build is done so we can move on to the next quickly and smoothly. The only worry I have now is the internal finishings taking forever. I know we still have a while until we get to that stage in the build but everyone I have asked says it takes such a long time to get everything done.

I would literally go there and help as much as I could every weekend if they allowed it!

Looking forward to getting the house finished as quickly as possible as the place we are currently staying at is really getting on my nerves. Cant wait to move to the new area and start fresh.

I have also been looking at some furniture to slowly start purchasing before moving in so our house is not totally empty and everything is just super expensive so I have been putting it off and just trying to save the money so hopefully once we do finish, we can have some money to spend on furnishing the place.

Until my next post, lets hope I can save some money from the next pay day haha!
