busy at the house.. Where's Dalton???

Ian and the boys managed to get everything finished up today. They had one heck of a time figuring out the dormer above Dalton's room. Only because we changed the plans making the foyer come out instead of go in which meant Ian had some figuring to do to make it all work out. And look right.
They also got all the windows in and looking almost like a house now. The windows arrived late in the day and Ian was getting a little flustrated I think. But it all happened in the end.
Our front door on the other hand has not arrived. And no one is really sure why. So other than the front door it is looking pretty good. Ritchie and Colin will finish putting the door in now whenever it arrives.
You would really be surprised at how many people. Strangers to us just stop by and walk right into the house. On private property. Darin is getting so mad with people. I have to agree it is kinda nosey but I guess they are just curious. I would never be that brave to just walk into a house being built on some one's property like that though.
Colin came by and dug out the hole and drilled though the cement wall to install the sump pump today. So they are getting ready to pour cement in the basement soon. It's all coming along.
So Dalton is gone to my Mom's trailer for a few days. Then he is going with Auntie Tracy and Uncle Ed on vacation. I think they are going to the pioneer village. Then he will return back to the trailer. Then come home for the rest of summer holidays. Then school!!! Yay School.
I love to have my kids home with me but two months is almost to long for the kids. Dalton will be shocked when he gets back home and sees all that is done with the house. It's cool to be away all day or a couple of days and see all that has happened while you were away.
