Step #14 continued...more trusses!

Wow, you can really see what the house is going to look like! The truss company shorted us ONE truss, so we are delayed (surprise, surprise). It should be going on today or tomorrow, which means we get to pay for another day (or two) for the boom truck rental. Yuck.
They should start sheeting with OSB today and hopefully get started on the roofing process. Please pray, because we have rain in the forecast for three days next week. I know we desperately need rain, but if it could just hold off until we get that roof on, that would be GREAT!

Another fun tidbit of information is that I completely sank in the mud this morning, trying to take pictures. I was running to the back of the house and figured that the ground would be hard by now. Nope. My shoes got stuck, but I kept moving. So my socks got completely muddy and the bottoms of my pants are dirty too. I had to go back and retrieve my shoes, which were buried, and then go barefoot into the house to change my shoes AND my socks. *sigh* It was not a great way to start off the morning. And did I mention that Hallie was screaming in the car while I did all of this?







Front view...you can see where they are missing a truss on the right side.


This is the shot that I took while sinking in mud.
