IT IS REALLY HAPPENING...


1158 to be exact!
Last lot on the court!

Here we go...the lot was scraped and staked to prep for digging the hole

 The footing are in place.  The tall cement things are forms for the foundation.   This is the front view of the garage closest part of the house to the street.
The square on the left is the front entrance.  What do you mean you can't see it?
The mastersuite, isn't it grand??

Forms are in place and the foundation is poured!

When we broke  ground the builder discovered that our soil was not stable.
Gravel had to be brought in to secure the footings.

Who cares about the house...give me a HUGE dirt mound!  Meg, Ash and their friends after playing King of The Mountain.  I don't remember the last time I heard so much giggling.  Man were they dirty!

    The dirt mound brings back memories of when we lived in a duplex while they were building our house....Jim and I did the same thing!! (Not sure if Pat was on the scene yet!).
    Looks super fun & exciting. Thanks for sharing!
