Having walked thru the house after the insulation was put into place and seeing all of the drywall boards stacked up in each room - we were expecting 2 or 3 days to get it all installed.  NOPE!  It took the builders 1 full day to install ceiling and wall drywall.  Very impressed.  We saw some things that we hope will be fixed before they plaster and paint the walls.  It's amazing how quick they can build homes these days.  Here are some drywall pics from today.

Met with the project manager on Monday for the pre-drywall meeting.  Found a couple things that needed to be fixed - but other than that - everything is looking good.  We went over all of the power outlet locations, light switches, cable connections, interior and exterior lighting, and checked out the heating/air conditioner in the basement.

We were told the insulation would go in and dry wall would begin by weeks end.  Being a little anxious to see how that went - we swung by on Tuesday and all of the insulation was installed.  Here are some pictures of the progress prior to this week and following the insulation being installed.

The interior framing is done and the roof shingles are installed.  Looks like the electrical and plumbing work will be next.  Here are the latest pictures that we took today.  We were able to walk around the property and get inside to see how the framing looks.  So far so good!

The construction is moving along very quickly.  This is what has happened since Monday when the first board was nailed down.  I was told that the framing will be done tomorrow - 5 days after beginning.

After a week vacation visiting Disney World - progress is finally being made at the home site.  The slab was poured last week and the lumber delivered as well.  This is what we returned to from our vacation.  Things are taking shape - literally.
