Welcome to our Home Improvment Blog!

Gather 'round friends!

Pull up a chair and sit a spell.

Welcome to our Home Improvement blog. Hopefully we'll do better than Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor did on the TV Show!

As you may or may not know, we are adding a two-story addition to the house. This will double the size of our family room as well as add a master bathroom on the second floor. We've decided to start this blog to keep everyone up to date on what's going on. The builder will be framing both stories and doing all the outside work (putting in the windows, siding, moving the A/C, pipes, etc...). We will be doing the inside (insulation, wiring, drywall, floor, etc...). The only inside work done by the builder will be setting the shower. Rest is up to us! FUN, FUN!!

So, here's where we stand:

- On June 24 we had our building permit approved.
- All of the bricks and some of the walkway stones were removed from the back patio.

Our builder starts today, July 6. At 8am he was to be at our house and would be delivering a bunch of equipment and such.

Next step will be to move the air conditioner.

Come back again and check out the blog to see the progress. I will try and update daily with pictures and a progress report.
