Hey, you wanna buy a house?!?!

yep, that's right! our house is on the market! and!! we have our first showing tonight at 5! the for sale sign was put in our yard yesterday afternoon and we are thrilled! the professional photographer came over on wednesday and took some pictures of the house. they turned out great! they took a lot of pictures and the realtor will keep posting them online to keep the house on the top of the "for sale" list. i guess it is a better way to market the house, idk.  anyway, check it out HERE!

yesterday, we met with the electrician at the "big house" as jack calls it. we had a walk through with him to decide where to put the recessed lighting, special outlets we need, cable outlets, etc. while we were there, we found out that the brick is being ordered today and will be on-site starting tomorrow. it sounds like the brick could be finished in 4 days, which is crazy fast to me!

i took some pictures while i was at the house. the roof is finished except for the section over the front porch. we are having a metal roof installed in that section. we are having a burnished slate found HERE installed (found under the 26MSColorfast45 or 26 gage PDVF). the style will either be a 12" or 16" with minor ribs. do you think i could pass as a roofer one day?? see how much i'm learning?!?! don't you dare ask me what the 26 mscolorfast45 or 26 gage pdvf are!! :)

 the roof just below the dormer will be the metal roof. we will also have a couple of columns on the porch that are in the craftsman style.
