Framing is complete!

We're pretty sure framing is now complete. Here is the result:

That's the exterior front with all the doors and windows in place.

This is a view of the loft upstairs. The stairs to the first floor are at the end of that little bridge over there. Obviously the hand rails are temporary, they're having an open house next weekend and don't want people to fall.

This is one of the upstairs bedrooms. This will be a home office.

This will be the guest room. If you come to stay with us you'll end up in here. We promise to have a comfy bed.

This is the other home office.

This is the upstairs bathroom. It'll be a full bath with a door separating the toilet and shower from the sink. Apparently that's a thing now. I've only really seen it in hotels, but whatever.

This is a view of the loft from the other side. I'm standing at the top of the stairs.

Standing in the same spot, but looking to the left down over the great room and the kitchen. You can see the giant windows in the great room from here.

They finally put in stairs! I think the 2x4 steps are temporary, again for the open house. We'll be getting nice wood and a carpet runner in the end.

This is at the front door, looking out over the open space of the first floor. Dining room, great room, kitchen and way in back is the morning room.

Another shot of the U-shaped stairway. To the right in this photo is the coat closet.

This is the master bathroom. The cubby on the left is a little commode room with a door (again, weird). The U-shaped space dead ahead is going to be the big shower area. No doors, just tile.

The master bedroom. If you look closely you might be able to make out a big X marked on the top left window pane. It has a crack and needs to be replaced.

Another view of the master bedroom, showing the door that leads out to the back porch.

I'm standing in the morning room looking at the kitchen and the beginning of the big kitchen island. The plans only call to frame the two 'walls' where people will sit. The other 'walls' of the island are formed by cabinets, I guess.

Looking from the mud room down into the garage. They still haven't installed this door or the stairs down into it. Maybe they need to cement the floor first (it's still gravel).

And finally, the morning room, where you can see the double door. It's not a sliding door (we're not big fans of those), one panel is fixed and the other opens like a normal door.

That's it for this phase! We're not sure what they'll be doing next or when it'll start, but we'll keep the photos coming when it does.
