OMG progress!

So things have begun moving along! I guess when nothing seems to have happened for so long, every little bit of action is exciting. We stopped by the lot last evening and came across this sight! Actually the plumbing for sewage went in today, but the slab frame went up yesterday. A quick call to the builder today and we now have an updated calendar. Plumbing inspection on Friday. Begin digging for foundation and then (get this!) possibly slab poured next week. This is crazy!!! We are months away from completion but it feels great to begin to see progress.
We have a list of things we need to do soon though.
  • Confirm the color of acid-etched concrete on the ground level (super dog friendly surface!)
  • Order the hookup of the temporary electric source from Reliant
  • Arrange for water setup
  • Get plumbing rough-ins to builder office
  • Get back to drawing board on carpet (sure ain't gonna upgrade carpet with 2 dogs)
  • Finalize tile selections
  • Finalize a countertop selection in the master bath - very cool new choice just made available. We're strongly considering changing from the quartz solid surface in the master bath to a new product.
Wow. We realize that this is just a start, but we've been waiting for this start for quite some time. Initially the shell should've been constructed by the time that school started this fall. Now that we don't have time off, we're at this stage. Go figure. LOL.
