House Progress

After many months (ok - really more like years) of waiting to build our own house, the process has finally begun!!!  Here is the progress so far:

Clearing the land (Fall 2010)
 We have a gravel road/driveway!
 Digging the Footing (December 2011)
 The footing has been poured! (March 2011)
 We ran into a slight problem after the footing was poured.  As the concrete truck was leaving, it backed into our newly erected electric pole!  But thankfully, that was not our responsibility to fix...WHEW! 
Our next step was to have the form boards put up, dirt hauled in and leveled, and the plumbing installed and inspected...
 Today we got our concrete slab poured!  (April 2011)
So now this weekend Joel will begin framing the house!  

There will be more house pictures to come soon (hopefully!)

The prep work is always the longest and hardest part! Once you get the framing done, I bet it'll seem to fly! Congratulations!
