Getting ready to frame

Can't believe we are almost to the point of framing - we are very excited to see our house take form - that anticipation is killing us. Our land has been graded and the lumber arrived today. It is raining today, and we will be in Chicago from wed-Sunday - so I wonder what we will miss, if anything. Here's some pictures of out lot/lumber, and a house I found with the color brick we will have - it's a Jefferson, I think - in a nearby neighborhood. We will have almond trim and black . doors/shutters. Happy thanksgiving to everyone!
