Garage floor's done! Elkészült a garázs padlózata

Another step closer....we've got the garage floor done ( or basement ceiling)! It's good to see the progress, and how Dave's crew is working on our house. As I told Dave the other day, I didn't really like Mondays in the past, knowing that the whole week is still ahead, and the weekend is so far....but now I kinda like Mondays, because after a "long" weekend when they're not around, the crew is back and back to work...:)
So yesterday I was talking to Dave and he said they'd probably be done with all the floors by the end of next week, and then they can start working on the framing of the first floor..and I was like, "so when is the concrete coming?" Since I'm from Europe, I can't imagine a house, especially floors, without solid concrete:) Dave started laughing and pointed to the floor saying, "hey, this is SOLID...you'll have concrete on the driveway". OK, I trust them, they know it better than I do...:)) Just in case, though, I checked the floor if it was really that solid :)) So walked up there with Noemi, and tested it by jumping, stomping on it. It is OK :))

Egy újabb lépéssel közelebb...elkészült a garázs padlózata (ami egyben a basement mennyezete). Jó látni a haladást, ahogy Dave csapata dolgozik a házon. Dave-nek mondtam a minap, hogy régebben nem szerettem a hétfőket, mert olyankor az egész hét előtted van, és a hétvége még nagyon messzinek tűnik...mostanában viszont valahogy kedvelem a hétfőt, mert a hosszú hétvége után, amikor nincs itt a csapat, a hét első napján ismét itt vannak, és megint dolgoznak:) Tegnap beszélgettem Dave-vel, és azt mondta, valószinűleg jövő héten befejezik a padlózatot, és kezdik a falakat..én meg rákérdeztem, hogy a beton mikor érkezik? Hát, igen, európai agyammal nem tudok egy házat, főleg a padlózatot szilád beton nélkül elképzelni.. Dave elkezdett nevetni, és a padlóra mutatva mondta: EZ SZILÁRD, nézd csak meg. Beton majd a kocsifeljárón lesz...:) Na jó, rendben, bizom benne, hogy tudják, mit csinálnak:) Azért biztos, ami biztos, leellenőriztem a dolgot, és Noémivel felmentünk rá, ugráltunk, dobogtunk...Minden rendben, tényleg nagyon stabil:)

Hello everyone! Üdv mindenkinek!

Making progress

So we met this contractor last Saturday, but before that we had a fun adventure. As we were dropping off Easter Service invitation fliers of our church at the neighborhood, we came across a nice house with a few features that we plan to have. So Wayne rang and a lady answered the door. It turned out that they were Christians too. We made a compliment about their nice house, adding that we were planning to remodel our house too and we liked the features of theirs. The lady was like, oh my husband is a contractor and actually he's done all the work on our house. They even invited us in and showed us around...the icing on the cake was that it turned out that the husband was Croatian (I could tell he had some European accent:) and after I mentioned that we were from Hungary, he said 'oh, then we're neighbors' . I like these little “adventures” or coincidences, I know there are no coincidences though. Anyway, back to our meeting with the contractor. I can tell that it wa...

Still alive and kicking:) Még élünk és virulunk:)

The living room is Noemi's "ballrom" now:) - a nappali most éppen Noémi bálterme:) master bath Master bedroom...who is that ballerina? :) Szülői háló, és Noémi "balerina" :) tiling is done in the kitchen - burkolás kész a konyhában It's been more than a year since my last post....my bad:) Well, seems that our project is getting closer to the finish line...Thanks to my in-laws' generosity, we can keep going. Noemi's bedroom is done, so she could move in, too. Flooring and tiling is done throughout the house, now we're working on the details. Final plumbing, getting appliances, shopping for bathroom vanities etc. I can't wait for shopping for furniture and accessories...Hopefully soon:) Több mint egy éve irtam utoljára...az én hibám:) De úgy tűnik, közeledünk a célhoz. Köszönhetően a család segitségének, előre tudunk lépni ismét. Elkészült Noémi szobája, igy ő is beköltözhetett. A burkolás, csempézés kész, most már a rész...
