You know that new house on the hill? We built it.

Almost insulated and sided

The HardiePlank is basically done except for the exterior trim.
I keep waiting for the MiraTec columns to get here for the porches...the 2x4s that are holding up the roof look like they're getting tired of waiting on their replacements (but I've been told they're much stronger than they look).
Kitchen side. Notice the small black circle midway up on the right--that is where the range hood will vent. Yay for exterior venting!
I haven't posted one of these views in a while--this is the angle you will see when you drive up to the house.


HVAC is in progress, too. 
The exterior walls are insulated (excited about that R-19 and 2x6 walls, especially after receiving our power bill for the month of December).

For Christmas, Ashley's parents gave us two pecan trees. Here they are...right now they look like two sticks in the ground but soon enough they'll be producing delicious nuts for us to enjoy!
