The last week has been by far the most exhausting and stressful. Tim had hoped to complete the electrical rough-in on Sunday, but ended up taking off the past few days to try and complete it. There are just a few loose ends we need to tie up and then we will be ready for inspection. Unfortunately, Tim has been called out of town for work and had to return to Northern VA tonight. (The worst timing ever!!!) This project exceeded our expectations and has been quite the undertaking. We knew it would be difficult and time-consuming, but we were not prepared for how much work it really was. However, it will all get done and most importantly, we are saving a ton of $$$! Laura has learned to be quite the electrician's helper. She has been trimming out receptacles, pulling wire, and even installed some of the light boxes!


Meter base installed on side of house. This is where VA Power will hook up our service. The stone has really progressed on the front bay windows. We should be ready for steps to be installed tomorrow.
Cinder blocks for steps.
Electrical panels for 400 amp service.
Noah and Tyler love riding their bikes in the garage.

Ted has been such a BIG help the last few days!
Our Sanijet tub was installed today. The plumber finished up everthing for his rough-in and should be getting his inspection tomorrow. One of the many receptacles Laura trimmed out.
