Quick update

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I've had a pretty full-on couple of days. Dad suffered a stroke a couple of days ago, on the same day that Max broke his arm. Both are well, Dad is progressing day by day so it's just a waiting game at the moment but it looks quite positive. Amid all the sadness, somehow, we magically have a frame up on the slab (courtesy of the bikeman fairy and his cronies)! Real walls, and rooms you can walk through. It's very exciting seeing something that you have created on paper all of a sudden in 3D. It is really, really cool. I have photos but I'm too tired tonight to upload, sorry!!! I'll try to get to it over the weekend. It looks great, the frame went up really quickly, in 2 days so the boys worked really hard. Pink has already fallen out of her room, backwards through the hole in between the fram trusses. Apparently forgot that there wasn't actually a wall there. Blue is most impressed with the house, being able to wander through the middle of walls is very appealing! The only issues were the door into the garage, they measured it from the bottom of the garage floor rather than the elevated level of the second section. So it appears to be a door for the seven dwarfs. Luckily the chippie can fix it! And the windows at the front don't look quite right, we requested them a bit low so they are going to be moved up a little as well (again courtesy of chippie). Windows have been delivered, and are being installed tomorrow. All systems go!
