The Masters House

Well there has been a lot of progress on the house over the last week. Click the photo for a nice big shot.

In 1 day the house went from studs to being completely drywalled. Within 3 days they completely mudded the walls and textured them.

Our neighbors house which is 1 day ahead of ours is having all the trim put in place so that means that ours should be going in within the next day or so.

Also, they have put all the tile floors in the kitchen, closets, and bathrooms and they have done the tile in the shower in the main bath room.

Finally, we have had the wiring for surround sound installed for ceiling speakers. OK, I have to confess, I snuck in the night before they put the drywall up and ran the wire myself. I did do it myself because -

1. They would not let us do anything custom to the house because of the package and price that we got
2. Even if they would have let me pay someone, why would I want to pay someone hundreds of dollars when it cost me $20 (the cost of the speaker cable)

Anyway, things are cruising along on the house so I looks like we will have it at the beginning of May (before Dan Jr. comes - Yeah!)
