House is rocking along

One week later...

So it turns out we got the sliding glass doors we had been trying to get. I had actually given up, we heard no so often. When we first went to look at the Mercedes Home model home and met with the guy who was to become our salesperson, Vika expressed an interest in sliding glass doors. Our salesguy said it wouldn't be a problem, wouldn't cost anything extra, should actually be cheaper than the french doors they were switching to. Well, it turns out they are more expensive. Yes, the cheap ass sliding doors (and they were the base model, make no mistake) we got were actually $100 more each than the french doors. It just gets better and better! So here are some pics...

Bow before the power of my wooden masterpiece. Those guys don't mess around. I gotta give props to the mexican guys who worked all day, even on the weekend in the Texas heat to get this monster up. They were even working on July 4th. Remind me not to go work at Mercedes Homes!
