12-4-08 Framed!

From what we had heard from others building with PD, we were expecting to see some of the frame go up in say around 6-8 days after the slab went down. On Sat we took a drive up to the block to see the completed slab. We were driving toward the estate and saw a frame in the distance and were saying "is that our block? No surely not....OMG it is!" and low and behold we already have the first storey frame!! woohoo!! We couldn't believe it - I didn't think two grown ups could get so excited over bits of timber.

Here's some of the pics...the Front...

...the rear...


...side.


Here's me planning the garage set-up (as you do). "Mmmm..... - is it big enough?"


Here's the two cherubs just sitting enjoying the views.


We decided we would duck up to the local shops and buy some fish 'n' chips and have an early dinner in the 'new' house. While we were sitting in the 'family room' a couple turned up at our temporary fence calling out to us. Turns out they are our new neighbours, also buiding with PD (Hamilton 34) just around the corner.

Apparently they travel past the area at least once a day and had seen our frame go up on Thursday, 2 days after the slab was poured! How happy are we?
