Roof trusses are a go!

I did my daily drive by today and was excited to see the roof trusses have been put in place :).

Who's Your Daddy...

 

Okay I know this has absolutely nothing to do with our house build but I had to share...

 

I could not resist this Tshirt I found at Big W last night. 

When I was pregnant with Luke, Rob & I could not agree on a boys name. 

Then one day I was watching Star Wars when I said 'what about the name Luke?' 

Which Rob replied

"Why not - then I can say 'Luke I am your Father' (done in best Darth Vader voice)"

 

The rest is History

1st Floor Frame Up.

1st floor frame went up the other day.  Our Site Supervisor has contacted us for our first site inspection.  Looking forward to that.

Frame

The ground floor frame is almost complete :).

When we saw the slab after the pour it looked so small.  So much so that we took down our tape measure to check that it was the right size (which it was).  Now the ground floor external and internal frames are almost complete it looks so much bigger.
Hopefully by the end of next week the first floor frame will be up also.

Slab time.

I got very excited when I dropped by our property today - the slab has been poured :)

One step closer.

PVC pipes and things that bark.

We now have PVC pipes layed down.  I am assuming that they are for drainage and sewage?
Notice the tempory fencing on the ground.  We have had some quite strong winds (and rain) around here lately and a fair bit of our temp fencing is now laying on the ground.

I know that this dog is loved.  Why because I have just paid out over $300 for him at the vets, and this is only the beginning. 
Unfortunately K.D has an eye problem which has severely effected his eye sight.  His eye ointment which for 3.5g costs $130.  Which he needs to have applied to his eyes twice a day for the rest of his life.  If this doesn't help him and his eyes continue to deteriorate and be inflamed he will need his eyeballs removed:(.
Like I said, just as well he is so loved or he would have ended up at the glue factory.


Posts, Dirt & Electricity

Visited our property today and happy to see that a temporary power box has been installed, some more digging has been done and some post/markers added.  Hopefully soon we will have the slab poured.
