Looking more and more like a home!

When Abby and I stopped by the house on Thursday, the melting snow flooded the basement. With no electricity the sump pump could not run, so the builders ran an extension cord down to the pump in the basement and ran PVC pipping from the sump out to the front door. On Saturday the the basement was mostly dry and the PVC was gone.

Below is the drive-up view of the house. The house faces east/south-east. You will notice labels on the windows to give everyone an idea what room is what. We are very luck to have the lot we have. It's one of the larger lots in the complex, plus no other homes are very close to the house. And, the street we live on should not be very busy.
Right now, the plumbing is being installed and most of the HVAC is complete. The three of us are admiring our new fireplace (and wishing it was on...it was cold inside the house). Joy snapped the photo while standing in what will be the kitchen. On the floor are the red and blue water lines waiting patiently to be installed. The three windows and the sliding door face the west, which is nice because we will have natural light in the great room and kitchen until the sun sets.
Eliza's future bathtub is in! Also in the guest bath will be a double vanity.
Here are the beginnings of the master walk-in shower. Needless to say, we are very excited for the big shower.
Two very happy homeowners!
