Sunday Funday

After a fun weekend of friends, drinks and food we spent our Sunday morning cleaning up the yard. 

It's just one of the negatives of building your own house, nobody's going to clean up your mess for you!

It actually wasn't too bad. The framers had kept most stuff in piles around the yard so we just carried it up to dump trailer we're borrowing. 




I'm not sure what's wrong with me, but I actually enjoyed doing this. I would way rather play outside in the mud than clean the inside of my actual house. 

It had rained quite a bit the last few days so we also wanted to squeegee off the subfloor. We don't want water sitting on it and saturating the wood. It could cause the subfloor to warp and swell, which could cause problems with our flooring down the road.  


I called dibs on squeegeeing next time. It looked like fun.  Although next time we'll be squeegeeing around more walls! Yay!

The front walls are mostly up! 


The back wall is framed too, can't wait to see it up! Word on the street is that the roof trusses will be on by the end of the week, weather permitting. 

Back wall, framed but not up. 

Roof trusses waiting to go up.

I'm afraid to look at the weather for this week. Since there's nothing I can do to change it, I try not to get too worried about it. I'm just happy that our framers aren't made of sugar and tend to stick out the rainy days.
