We have a bit of a skylight problem since there is no roof and it's going to snow 3-6 inches tonight....... This will be the second time we have to shovel snow out of our house!!
Come on trusses, hopefully this week!!

But this last week, framing started!!!!!!!!!! It's starting to take shape!!

Update:

The last week has gone fast!! We are happy to report that everything is progressing nicely!! In the first week we have dug a hole, put in footing, set and pour foundation walls, waterproof and insulate the basement, and put in drainage tile to keep our basement dry :)

Some pics:

No more forms, waterproofed, and insulated
