Roof is done!

It took the framers a while to complete the roof because of more weather delays.  Finally, we are ready for the shingles.

I think Carlo did a fantastic job with the middle window!

We met up with the roofer to choose the colour for the shingles.  It was really difficult to make a decision because the sample we got was so small and it was hard to imagine what it would look like on a house.

Imagine all these samples are on a sheet of  8.5 x 11

I've always liked the look of charcoal gray on the roof.  Scott didn't want the roof to be too dark.  So we compromised and decided on this colour called Driftwood:

It doesn't even look like the photo next to it.  Even after I had made the decision, I was still not convinced that I had made the right choice.  The roofer suggested that we go out to look at a house that he had just finished with the same colour that we chose so that we can finalize our decision.  I drove to that house after work the next day but it was so cloudy and far that I couldn't really tell if I really love it.  Anyway, not wanting to waste any more time, I said yes to Scott to finalize the decision and hoped for the best!
