Building The House

I'm not sure what I last updated with on the progress of the house so I thought I would share a few photos that we've taken out at the site! The last visit we made was on Sunday afternoon and it was absolutely beautiful! We walked out in our "backyard" and went down to the pond that's about 3 minutes walking distance from our lot. It looks like they're just about to pour the foundation- they've done a lot to the land but since we are not construction workers we're not exactly sure what has actually been done. There are little "trenches" .. for plumbing and such? Hah... yeaahh.


Looking out into our future backyard..


Looking toward the street and our future across the street neighbor's homes.


Nate trudging through the dirt. (my shoes were real sad after a few minutes of walking out here!)


This is "our pond". I envision many Summer days spent beside this pond. :)
**I took this picture through the lense of my sunglasses! Cheap photography tricks, yall. ;)


Here is a lovely picture taken by the pond. A reminder that Spring is here!


..and the same flower in a different view!


Apparently this area between our back yard and the pond used to be a corn field!


I could just lay here all day and stare at the clouds passing by!


And lastly, I love the lines in this one....




And there you have it. :) I will keep you posted on the progress! I'm excited to take pictures of every stage. It will be neat to look back and see what used to be just a piece of dirt and how it has transformed into our home. <3
