Our House Day 5: Beginnings of a Foundation

After a day off yesterday, the crew was back at work today making progress and getting ready for the foundation.

Our House Day 4: Huge Hole in the Ground

Taking a day off the work today, but here are some better shots of the hole in the ground.

Our House Day 3: Done Digging

One of the reasons we love our builder is that we gets moving, we are a day and half into it and the hole is totally dug out!

Our House Day 2: Breaking Ground

The closing documents recorded early this morning, so our builder wasted no time in getting to work.

Our House Day 1

Well, it has been a while, a long while since we posted here. We've been super busy growing our business and house hunting. In May, after dragging our Realtor around to 40+ homes in 5 months, we decided our best option was to build our own home. So we found a builder and a lot and started planing and designing our new home.

We closed on the lot and the construction loan on July 3rd. Since we currently live just a 1/2 mile from where we are building we decided that we will be taking a walk to the build site daily to check on progress and take pictures. We've had several requests for pictures and updates so you can follow along here on the blog.

Here are the "before" images.
