Framework going up!

Finally! After work today we drove out to the building site. We were getting a little worried about whether we would be able to take any photos since the sun was setting. On Monday it was raining/snowing and slushy outside so we were not sure as to how far they had gotten since Sunday, but we were in for a surprise! The first picture shows the house from a distance (all that landscape will in the next few months be dotted with houses). It was pretty muddy today. The road is paved but it looks like a trail of mud today. So, after lots of waiting, the house is being built. In just 3 days the entire framework is done - we were not expecting that! We plan on driving out to the building site again on Friday to take more progress pictures, so stay tuned.

This week...

So, the house next to us is now in the process of being built. There is lumber on our lot now and judging by the speed of which the other houses are going up, we're expecting that at least the framework will be done on our house this week. Check back later in the week. We'll update the blog more frequently from now on.

Our row now has houses popping up

The street where our house is going to be built now has several houses ready. Our "lumber drop" is scheduled for Feb 22, and soon thereafter they will finally start building it!
