Drywall near completion.... 10 weeks to go???

Hey guys!  It has been a week since my last post.  The drywall was started this past weekend and as of today is 90% complete.  The fence was finished except installing the gate.  It has been an experience watching the drywall go up.  They slap the long pieces of sheetrock lengthwise on the walls covering doorways and openings and then cut them out.  Looked pretty crappy at first, then amaingly I come in the next day and corners are finished, tape and bedding, and floating are all happening.  What a transformation.  It is beginning to be easier to imagine how each room is going to look.  The stucco is finally set to begin this weekend and should take about a week to be complete. The outside should be complete in 2 weeks.   Also, the pool will be started to be dug this week. In fact, James with ACH said that completion date would be 10 weeks barring any delays!!!!  Thats only 2 1/2 months.  Probably be more like 3 1/2 but that still puts us in by Christmas.  What a grand Christmas present to ourselves.  But that means no Christmas Lights this year... sorry Greenhill Park. 

Since there are so many pictures with this blog, I will just label them below.  I took pictures of a good deal of the rooms to show an idea of what they will be like. I think when everything is finished, I will take a narrated video and post it.
