A New Home!

Well, after spending the first part of the year frustrated about looking and looking and looking for a house to buy we have come to the conclusion we would rather have a brand new home for the same price as an older, lived in home. So we are in the process of building our first home, and we are super excited. We are building out in Eagle Mountain and couldn't be happier. It's a great area and we are excited to get back out there.

So, I'm a little behind on posting the progress of the home but I've captured some of the process thus far. We are happy that it is moving along smoothly and quickly. Within 2 weeks it went from this..........



The hole

The foundation


All framed and up!

To this......crazy!

Today, Layne and I went out to pick out the tiles, stucco color and stone and they had made even more progress. Most of the windows were in, framing in the basement was almost complete, and things were roughly mapped out where they will go in the home. At the beginning of the process they said we would be in by the end of May beginning of June. We both thought, no way. So a rough estimate we are now getting is mid to end of June. No worries, we are not in any hurry. We just want it done right!
