It is only 10 degrees out as I type. What a winter! And, what a winter to build a house! Who had this great idea? The drywall crew was supposed to come last week, but was deterred due to the ice storm. When it was finally nice for them to come on Friday...they didn't want to just come for one day and have to go back. So, when there was a blizzard warning yesterday we were not surprised when they were not there when Dave checked at 9 and noon. Mark went out after work to lock the gate and they WERE there! They arrived a little after noon! 3 guys down to business. They said that if they didn't get down yesterday...then it would be 2 weeks until they could get down again. We are thankful they made the trip (from Blue Earth, MN--just over the border). Here are some pictures of what they accomplished in just a few hours.

Living room


Our closet and bathroom from our bedroom
Traci Ludwig came up on Sunday and helped me pick out the colors for the rooms. AND, Mark even liked them! We are very motivated to paint and do our part to get out of the rental. Normalcy is going to do everyone some good at our house. A cold week this week, so they probably will not be back to finish the siding.
