Our new house....almost home :)

Our new garage door! We love it!
Our new door from garage to house. Notice the nice, new sheetrock.
Progress on the garage.
Progress in the family room.
Lots of progress in the family room!

Josh and I have spent many a night and Saturday putting sweat into our new house. We hope to have a great home in no time. What really makes a house a home? Does it turn into a home the minute you move in? Does it turn into a home when you hang the sheetrock? Or does the tape have to be up too? At any rate we are now on the sheetrocking phase. We are very happy with the progress and it's fun to be turning our walls and ceilings white. However, now that we are near the finishing stages of the garage and family room downstairs Josh is getting itchy again...hence the new holes in our bathroom walls :) Our project is now growing, but with some vision it should be beautiful in no time. We have attached some pictures of the recent developments. We hope you enjoy them.
P.S. This work could not have been done without a lot of help from family and friends. Thanks for all of your help so far Greg Shackle, Dave Lewis, Jesse Rask, Andy Kriz, Brigham Wilson, Tim Wilson, Paul Goodwin, and Mom and Dad Wilson.
