This week we were able to finish off the stairs, frame a wall under the stairs, put up and tape off most of the Tyvek, re-frame the kitchen, block the kitchen, staircase, and bathrooms, and put the final touches to the interior rough framing.  The plumbers are expected to start rough plumbing the house today so its time for the class to migrate outside of our wonderful dry fit home to the sleet and rain once again.  Installing 4" of pink foam insulation to the outside of the home is our next major undertaking.
