I know, I know, that is not quite the quote, but I liked it.
The septic is almost done, and they are waiting for the inspection tomorrow morning. Then it will all be covered up and we are on to the next project.
We chose furniture this week, which was on sale with a no interest until […]

There just has been no photo worthy moments in the last few days. They are finishing with the septic line, the footers are being dug, and the house man came out and approved the space for the house. I was worried about that. Not that we did not have enough space, but I was just […]
They began the footers yesterday, and we went out to take a peak today. Actually, it does not look a whole lot different, but I have confidence they know what they are doing.
This is our house number, or tree number, for now. This picture makes it look like something out of “Jungle Book.”

This is the first marking spike driven into the ground with a rock, marking where the corner of the house will be.
This is the official layout of the house. You are looking at the front, bathroom on the left, living room on the right. […]
Our meeting with out contractor has been pushed back to 2PM, so I thought I would post the floor plans this morning. We are also going to look at flooring again today.
To confuse you even more, let me tell you that these floor plans will be flipped. The kitchen/dining/bedroom areas will be in the back, […]
We know nothing new. Our septic should be ready, and the rock to throw on the property so they can build should be there. Now we wait….and wait…We have a great contractor, so the waiting is all good.
We actually started packing. I know, it is three months away, but we started. We turned the guest […]
I know it is a big picture, but I wanted it to be really seen. Our house will sit at an angle with the back facing this direction. Directly center will be the deck, which will just out into the trees. Two or three of the trees will actually be part of the actual […]
