Here we go!

I will start with some before shots...Here is our home from the back.  The bay window is where Keyan's room is going.  



 You can see that this was after the first day where they dug the holes for the supports.


My Dad and Paul had to cut the grapes back and get the side yard ready to be the staging area for the construction.  


Day 2 brought some demolition to the inside of the house.  The girls decided they needed one more picture taken in the bay window that morning.


Paul and a friend of ours built this storage for the bay window so I think it was a little bitter sweet for him.


By mid-afternoon, our dining area looked like this!  I have to admit that it was quite a shock to loose the windows for now.  It changes the lighting and feel of the kitchen so much but I know that it is only temporary. indwell be so much more than I can even imagine when it is finished.  


 Here they are in the process of prepping the house for the addition.  



 By the end of the third day, we could walk on the "floor" of the new space!  It has been absolutely incredible to watch the process take place.



 The highlight of the afternoon is coming home from school and going to see how everything has changed.


 We helped Keyan and her sisters up into the space so that they could explore a little bit.  



 Four days into our project and this is how far we have come!  Amazing to me!  We have an incredible General Contractor who is passionate about this project and keeping it moving in the right direction.  God has blessed us with the crew that we are working with.
