ROOOOOOF!!!

We have a roof and Bodie is excited to tell all about it. He and I went on a Bodie, Mommy date and decided to drive to our new house and take a look at what was going on. We were lucky enough to see them craning up the last few trusses. Pretty cool. Bodie thought it was awesome! It's so fun to see the progress of our house. Can't wait to move in. I'm so anxious. One step at a time though. Gotta remember that...

What a week can do... HOLY SMOKES!

People, I have a house. I think I might move in next week. Ok, I'll wait until I have a roof I guess. But can you believe the progress? It is so exciting to see our house, yes our very own house, go up. I still don't think I am quite grasping the fact that we are building a house. It's amazing how busy I'm getting making sure I have everything picked, from flooring to toilet flushers to windows to doors... There is SO much that goes into this whole project. It's exciting though. I'll update next week.


VIEW FROM OUR LIVING ROOM... NOT TOO SHABBY


OUR FRAMED HOUSE... GLORIOUS SIGHT!





THE ZOO...
We went on a little Saturday morning outing to the zoo. We had a great time. The kids loved the giraffe's. It started out pretty cold but turned out to be a beautiful day... Grandma bought us an annual zoo pass for Easter so we'll be taking zoo trips a little more often. Thanks Grandma







My 3 musketeers... They make a good team. It's the gang up on mom team, but they sure are cute.... I love these 3 little people sooooo much!

I'm BACK! AND I'M BUILDING A HOUSE!!!!!!!!

I can't actually believe it's really happening, but it is. We FINALLY (and finally is an understatement) got everything squared away to build our house. We signed papers last week and went to check stuff out at the lot today and they had delivered the lumber!!! I am so excited to finally have a place of our own. A place that will be my home for a LONG LONG time. They will be done by June 23rd. And they better be done by June 23rd or else I don't get the $8000 first time home buyer tax credit. Well essentially I will anyway even if they aren't done cause I made them put it in the contract that if they aren't done by then they owe me the $8000. They did it. So I assume that means they are pretty confident on their completion date. SO I might just get a brand new house for my 27th birthday :) Happy Birthday to me. I'll post pictures of the progress of the house... This is what it looks like as of today. HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!
