Progress Continues!

Hi All,
Progress is being made on the new addition. My Dad is an electrician and he is still on the job at 81! He and I started putting up the electrical mast on Sat. Mr. Tennis was out tennis-ing, so he came later to the job, and I snapped the pics. My Dad's box in the garage.

Connections being made...
On the ladder pulling wire. I used to help him years ago when I was in high school on weekend jobs. He calls me his number 1 helper :)
Roofing continues. We have another good day tomorrow, yay~
The cupola is here and will sit atop the garage...
The 1x8 paneling for the den. My painter got 51 boards painted today!
The color I chose is Creamy White by Behr.
I love my windows that will eventually have a window seat beneath them :) Can you see my little shed in the distance that is built to resemble my house? It is will be sided and roofed with the same materials as the addition.

I am linking with...
