Carriage House Update

The carriage house is really coming along.  Windows are installed, and plumbing and electrical has started.  We think it looks great, but we are also anxious for it to be completed.
 Not sure how much you can tell in the above picture, but a lot of the soffits have been built.  Note also the windows are installed, which really makes it look like a house.
 The top window in the above picture isn't installed because I think it's easier for the guys to throw stuff out the window vice carrying it down the stairs.  Once all the big construction is done, the final window will be installed.
The piles of stuff in the driveway are the siding for the house.  There will be brick along the bottom and wood siding above.  The brick isn't here at the house just yet, but it should be very soon.  There has been a lot of work to the interior as well, but I'm not sure how well this shows up in pictures.
 The above is the lower level.  You can see the white sewer pipe coming down from the ceiling.
The above two shots are the upstairs--the living quarters.  All the framing is down, and there are some light fixtures in place along the ceiling--no power yet to the fixtures, but progress is progress.  Ashley has also ordered the kitchenette cabinets, the appliances, and I think she's close to deciding on a vanity.  After that, I think the floors need to be picked out.  We haven't really asked when things will be "move-in" ready, but we are hoping for July. 

Not much else going on around here, but I think the dogs like having us home so much.
Happy Cinco de Mayo to all.
