The house build is going slowly but surely...and we have had a lot of fun going up there nearly every day to check on the progress! These pictures are from the beginning of October. Andy and Matthew thought the well-digging truck was amazing. Both of them spent quite a bit of time watching it pound deeper and deeper down. The guy running the truck thought Matthew was so cute and said he could come watch anytime he wanted.
We also started framing last month, and it has been amazing to see the house start to take shape! Here's Rachey standing in the entryway.
I have loved coming up to the house in the evenings and watching the sunset. It is gorgeous from up here.
Taylor, who is taking his 2nd engineering class, has been especially interested to see how the house goes from a set of lines on paper, to something 3 dimensional.
Matthew is in little boy heaven, playing in the dirt and helping to pound in a few nails...Andy and I have had a few dates up here...ordering out Chinese and eating it off the back of the house where the dining room will be. We're not excited or anything!
Meanwhile, Lainah LOVES the basement! Each time we go out to the house, she goes down to run around and explore. She even asked if her bedroom could be down there and was disappointed when I told her it was going to be upstairs. Too funny! We'll see if she's still disappointed once her bedroom gets framed in. I'm thinking she'll change her mind...
One day at a time, it's coming together!
