Stroll Down Memory Lane- Siding

I’ve been slacking the on the look back at our house building process.  Mainly because we didn’t take many pictures during this time period because we were doing super fun things like wiring and plumbing.  Not very photo worthy.

The last time we looked back, the house got some mortarless brick…

It was then time for the siding on the front…

Wasn’t our yard beautiful?? Love it.

We also finished siding the back of the house.  We hired the guy that framed the house to do the REALLY high siding.  DIY stops at a safe height…at least for Nate’s mom and I.

There you have it! Roughly 3 years ago.

What were you up to 3 years ago at this time?  I was about a month into being a pharmacist.  I worked 8-5 and then went to work on the house from about 6-9/10ish.  Every day.  I’m not sure how I did it.  I can barely manage to clean for an hour at night now…let alone paint all of the trim in the house. Craziness!

  1. My favorite phase in a project is when the decorative elements start to get installed. When you actually get to see your vision of the final result come to life vs, the construction phase. Again, I love the slate blue color you guys chose for the siding.
    As for what I was doing 3 years ago??? I can't remember. Must not have been too exciting!

  5. It's crazy how fast 3 years go by, and how much has changed too. Three years ago, I was just settled into out apartment, and planning a wedding less than two months away! You've given me so much inspiration to build our own house down the road.

  7. Oooh, it finally looks like a real house! Let's see... 3 years ago today, I was just about to meet Eric *cue the "awwww!"* And I was headed into my last and hardest year of school. Glad that's over!
