We started working on our room addition about a month ago. First we had to take the siding and the skirting off the park model. Then we started adding the foundation for the decking for the addition.

Measuring for height and distance was a challenge, but we did a pretty good job getting things straight.

We built the deck in sections. We did three sections. One at a time and yes, it was a challenge to get in and out of the house! This is the first section.

This is starting the second section. (We did put some decking down on the first section so we could get in and out of the house.

After the second section was framed, we framed the third section. What a job! It took us about 3 weeks to get to this point!

Brian and Ryath came over to help us put the decking on the deck, but we hadn't finished putting the floor-joices in the third section.

Ryath even got to help Daddy and Grandpa build the decking. We finished the decking after about 4 weeks working!

The decking is done! Then Jason got here last Sunday and in 5 days he got the addition framed, the doors and windows in and the house wrapped and some guys came in and put up the trusses!

This is the framing -- putting up the walls.

Jason hard at work. He really did a super job and worked really hard for his week off. We feel really blessed.

This is looking at the interior at the living room.

A look at the front of the house before door and windows.
Our house today. Now we need to do electrical and plumbing. Then we can think about sheetrock and maybe a front deck. WOW! Thank you Jason Jones, we really appreciate you!!!
