It's really happening!




SO we really are building a house- how cool is that! The weather has been so great that things are progressing smoothly and so fast! Next week we, well, not ME but the worker guys, will start framing- the lumber is already there... Soon we'll be picking out paint and carpet and all that stuff. So fun! Hyrum decided we should just leave the big pile of dirt in the back yard- it really makes for hours of good clean fun- though not the boys are not clean at all:). While Zach is most excited for the sky light in the kitchen, Hyrum thinks the coolest thing will be the fact that there are THREE bathrooms, and then if three of us have to go to the bathroom at the same time- we can! He also decided we need a fire pole for when we are in a hurry and now Weston is very excited for that! We went to look at the progress one day, while they were digging the hole and Weston asked me "But where is the upstairs for Grandma to live?" He doesn't know any different since we've been under Grandma his whole life! Poor kid! Anyway, here is pictures of our triumphant sold sign, Hyrum on the dirt hill and the foundation all done!

Very Cool!! Tyler would love that dirt pile too. We will definitely have to plan visits soon. How long will take for the house to be built?

That is super exciting! I'm with Hyrum, no need to landscape, that pile of dirt would keep them busy for years!

hooray! I am superly excited for you folk. I am glad that you clarified that YOU are not doing the actual building because I was a little confused... hahaha. THREE people can go to the bathroom at the same time?! What more could you ask for?

I can't wait to see the finished product! I'm sure Bryson would appreciate it if you left the dirt pile as well. Congrats you guys!
