Below is the progress on the house - ok, about a week or so behind. But things are moving along well. We are hoping to pour up to the first floor this week (fill all the block you see with concrete).
I don't think we have posted any "design" pics online, so here is the first a potential candidate for the siding and colors - I'm sure if it's like the design process to date, this will not be what is looks like, but you have to start somewhere. If you compare this to the picture above. The lighter siding on the bottom is where the blocks are stacked thus far (the garage on the left does not yet exist - give me a month or so.)
