Foundation

Oh my word.

Foundation- right after the footings.

Do you believe it? 

Who said building a house was hard, and frustrating, and drags on, and doesn't ever go how you planned it, and, and, and...?

This is slicker than slick!  Keeping our fingers crossed that it continues to go like this!

While all of this action is happening,

I'm in the hospital waiting to meet my precious nephew!

Exciting day!

Footings

Wait, what?

Footings the very next day?

You know it!

Dug

We swung by the house on our way to drop me off at the airport.

I'm headed to Philadelphia to visit The Sis and fam!

Weather pushed us back about 2 weeks from our original "dig date", but we're up and running!
Look at the HOLE!

Isn't it pretty?

It's happening.

 It's really happening!

Dropped Off

Look who got dropped off at our place today:

The BIG BLUE MONSTER!

That's what we're calling it!

We're getting excited!

The Lot

This is it.

The location of our future home.

View we will have from our front porch.

And how cute is that mini park across the street?

Documentation

This blog was started as an attempt to document the process of building our first home.

It will be an adventure and one that we are very excited for!
