A hole lot of fun

WOW so much has gotten done already. We went on St patricks day to see our hole. :) IT WAS HUGE!!!! I cannont believe how big it was. When we pulled up there were two neighbor boys taking the dirt from our site to go plants trees. We talked with them for a while and they seemed really nice. Meanwhile, The kids were so excited and running all around and of course I was waiting for one of them to fall right in that gigantic hole. They each decided they wanted to take a rock from the front so they could have it as a memory. It was fun. Then we drove through to meet some of the neighbors. There are so many kids!! My daughter is so excited to make new friends. I cant wait. Then we got an email from our PM last week saying the foundation was poured. :) aaannnnd today? We have framing. YAY!!! We got a picture early this morning when they began and by 230 this afternoon the first floor was done. I cannot believe how fast they work. Its starting to look like a house. OK its getting real now. In other news we seem to have found a renter for our other house, So ready to be done with that process.

Pre construction

We had our preconstruction meeting. Finally got to meet our PM. He seems like a nice guy so I hope he will be easy to work with. We went through all of our selections again. The only thing that I wish I would have thought of was that we needed one more light rough in. I didnt even consider the morning room!! Too late to add that in now so we pulled the rough in we were going to put into the loft and figure we can always pull the wiring down through the ceiling later on if we need to. Oops. Other than that everything seemed to be right. We went over the blueprints which I must admit are the most confusing things ever. He also told us that our water would run in through a corner so he would have to build a closet in the basement in that area. I was really excited about that but I think he thought I was crazy. When we went to visit the model they had that little closet. Although it serves no purpose it just adds something extra to the room. :) They didnt have our yard staked out yet but he said it should be done soon so untill then we will wait for that phone call.
