I was really hoping to document this whole house build process as we went along, but it has all been going SO quickly and keeping me SO busy, I rarely even have time to post a quick picture to Instagram! The framing on our house started at the beginning of September. We got home from our annual Labor Day vacation and the framing had not only started, but was really moving along!

property view from the driveway entrance
So, as a reminder, our property has 2 (kind of 3) different parts: the main house (with the garage/loft attached) and the barn, so when you see all these pictures, it looks like 3 buildings.
beginnings of the barn!
Our framers have been so amazing! They are a big crew and work quickly, but are also so patient with me whenever I have questions. Here they are showing me where the stairs will go so I can envision it.
garage (my parents’ loft will be above it, attached with a glass bridge to the main house)
view from the barn (on the right) toward the house
I have never been able to stop this boy from climbing! I just have to have him chill out a little around the subs because he worries them!
view from above the garage, down into the first floor of the house (before the connecting bridge)
the backside of the garage, the loft getting framed in.
2nd floor going up on the barn and loft

GIANT beam going in between the dining and living room
the barn loft getting trusses – it went up so quickly!

It was so fun being INSIDE the house when the framers were putting up the trusses! (yes, I was being careful)
2nd floor up in all 3 buildings!
front porch roof
inside of the barn – where we’ll have a game/hang out space
inside of the barn – where the RV will go
underside of the porch roof – the beams will all be painted black with the tongue & groove wood stained

loft porch roof – so pretty!
So many pictures, but I wanted to catch you up! This process has been so crazy – each step is so much fun and exciting, but also filled with more decisions and questions than I ever expected, so lots of stress in this as well. I am shocked at how much of my days are spent in meetings for the build or shopping for products. I think I can see a light at the end of the tunnel, but just barely!
so fun to document this process, I cannot wait to see more of it. Hope you had a happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks for helpful article! https://virtual-staging.archicgi.com
Thanks for bringing this topic up. I enjoy the way you present and argue all the details as well as your general writing style.
From time to time, there’s a lack of time to read lengthy bits, but is brief and
concise, I spent just a few minutes to read
the entire article. It’s essential since nobody has enough time to browse.
I liked the article and assume you have more such stuff?
If yes, so please note it as it’s somewhat unusual for me at
the present instant, and not for me personally, that is my own opinion.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! There are, however,
some pitfalls when it comes to practice. When I was a school student,
I wondered just how one ought to tackle this issue but I’d constantly encounter some questionable
answers: go google it or even ask for a friend.
What if my friends don’t have sufficient knowledge or expertise to assist me?
Imagine if I googled it multiple times and could not
find the solution? That’s when posts such as this you can give proper
advice on the problem. Once more, thank you for the job!
I didn’t have any expectations concerning that title, but then the
longer I was amazed. The writer did a great job. I spent a couple of minutes studying and checking the facts.
Everything is clear and understandable. This one is
of that type. Moreover, I like the way the
writer organized his ideas in addition to the visual part.
How nicely made this farming house. Thanks for sharing this.
WOW! That’s a beautiful farming plan. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. take care…
looks really interesting. wish you and your family all the best with your new home =)

Wow this is an awesome way to build a new farming house, However, now the technology has increased and we can also make new house plan and design via 3d rendering.
