Checking on the House

It has been a month since we last checked on the house....and a great deal of work was done. It is really starting to look like a house now, and we are very pleased with the progress....

If you click on any photo below, you can see a larger version of the photo.....

The above photo is of the master bedroom (bottom floor), and my office on the top floor. The steel beams for the roof are being built on top...

Above is the view of the house from the back yard. Again, the master bedroom on the bottom floor, and the office above. Just left of the master bedroom is the outdoor portion of our bathroom.
This view is from the back of the pool. You can see Kayla's bathroom with the vertical windows. Just right of that is Kayla's bedroom...then the covered terrace, and then the large open living room overlooking the pool. The structure for the roof has been put up over the living room.

Tika's mom and sister are here for the "Selamatan" ceremony that will take place on Thursday. They are busy cooking for 60 people. It is a Javanese tradition to perform a "selamatan" on the house when the roof goes up....gives the house good luck and gets rid of any evil spirits...
