The Drywall Happy Dance

Over the past couple of weeks, several things have been happening with the house. The roof is close to being finished, but only after our good friend (who works in construction) chewed a few people out. We are very thankful to have friends who work in different aspects of construction. It has really helped to move things along, but it has also helped us not to be taken advantage of during the building process. Also, on Thursday night, Travis told me that they were going to start installing sheetrock on Friday morning. Well, I really wanted to write scriptures on the framework in different parts of the house, so since it was nearly dark, I took my phone flashlight and wrote scripture that fit all of the different rooms of the house. It was a lot of fun! So, on Friday morning, the people who are installing our sheetrock, were there and ready to go. They finished a majority of the downstairs. Everything is starting to come together, so I'm excited to see what the next couple of weeks bring. Although, the Weather Channel says that it's supposed to rain a lot starting around Wednesday. And that makes me want to cry....

I'm adding a few more pictures of the progress that has been made. I hope this is all helpful to those of you in the building process or thinking of building a home.
