We ran into first trouble with the waste line from the sink. Rather than run a new line out to the street, our contractor figured out that he would be able to hook into the existing line. The only problem was that we discovered there was a leak in the existing line. They have had to dig through a large part of the slab to find the problem and ended up removing a big chunk of pipe.
The roof is now covered and we are now having to make some decisions regarding the roof color and gutter color. We are also now working on selecting cabinets so that our cabinet maker can begin the work.
One of the cool things we are doing to create more closet and storage space is to move the furnace and hot water heater up into the attic. By doing this, we will have two new closets. One will be an extra linen closet.... the other is going to be our wine closet! :-)

Things are mostly moving on track. We have been so lucky that the rains have held off this year. Normally by now, we would have experienced more rain. And while we need the rain to avoid draught, we are happy that it has not yet started.
Next up.... windows and doors are delivered.
