We still have plastic covering the other 2 sides of our house, but here is a little peek at the brick. It looks so great!!! Our Mason assures me it will look even better once it has been power washed.
We experienced our first 4-way inspection this week as well(Framing, Plumbing, Electrical, HVAC). To be totally honest this past week has been the hardest week so far since the start of building our house. I was so full of self-doubt and I was really giving up on myself. But, the Lord has helped me be strong. I still don't know everything about building a house but "It's Gonna Be Okay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pBjopDymts
We went to The Piano Guys concert on Friday night it was "AWESOME" (from the mouth of my kiddos). This might seem weird but it also helped me feel loved and as if I could do everything the Lord needs me to do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOO5qRjVFLw
We have been taking care of the items that didn't pass inspection,
installing a wood stove pipe and framing it in,
finishing the ducting for our AC,
bracing the basement load-bearing walls,
getting a plumbing test,
and dealing with the issue of the kid bedroom windows being too high off the ground.
I am also inspired by The Piano Guys' music! You are doing amazing work. I'll have to find out sometime all the part you played in all of this and if building is more cost effective, in your opinion.
