The D Family Update

It was Oct. of 2008 and I started posting  (click on hyper link word and you will go to post or page) on this family that was just starting to build their dream home. This following photo is of them that I took on the end of the first weekend that we had started stacking their log home. This photo was taken in Sept. of 2008   
Sept. 2012 just a 4 short years later here they stand in front of that beautiful home. this photo was taken by Jamie who is another home owner and a great Photographer.
 ( If you click her name it will take you to her web site )
I'm going to share some before and after photos I hope you enjoy.
This photo above and below are the guys doing the post & beam for their loft.
Then here are some after photos of this finished ceiling in Kitchen and dining room. 
One  month after they started here are a couple of photos.
Outside before and after

above is after inside 
Again these photos are Jamie ( this link is to her Facebook )

Then in Nov. of 2008 I posted a story about Radiant heating and
 showed some photos of the process in that post .
The above they are putting down the tubes and the below is the Living area tubes.
This first photo is looking across the living to front door from dining area under loft. 
Again Jamie ( this link is to her blog) took these after shots. the one below is a close up of the concrete floor that is used as a finished floor. They love it !
In Jan of 2009 the outside looked like this 
 
In Sept. 2012 it looks like this.
Inside they were doing the wiring in the living area .
Then here is a finished look.
OK I think I have done enough for now but I can't leave this post without these last
 2 photos that speak for themselves : )

It took a lot of work and dedication to get from the the start to finish. I remember the excitement when the trucks arrived with the logs. Those two children know that house from inside out, quite literally; about as much as their parents and family. So beautiful to see the house become a home. Love you all. Dad and Mom
