PHASE FOUR Week 27 Landscaping & Drywall

Week of Dec 1st - ***Our landscaping was finished last week and our lawn is covered with straw. Our river rock was also delivered and looks nice underneath the deck. I spent almost an entire day raking the front yard prior to planting the seed due to all the leaves that had fallen. It snowed two days after we planted and I took a pretty picture of the house covered in snow, but accidentally deleted it! Anyway, the snow is mostly gone now, leaving very soggy, messy yard. ****Most of our dry wall has now been put up and the "mudding" will begin today. I've learned that it takes three coats of "mud" and that we will need to keep our kerosene heater running 24-7 so the mud will dry properly. (As we speak it is 19 degrees outside.) ****We've ordered our tile and next week the flooring should begin. Our cabinet maker came out this week for final measurements and said the cabinets should be ready in about three weeks.
