Ready, Set....

Here we are, June of 2010, getting ready to build a house....When we bought the property in 2008, I never thought it would actually take this long to get this project started. But, that is another story.

We have "completed" our house plans, though I think they will continue to evolve as we go through this process. Just a few days ago we noticed a space under the porch that could be a "perfect" wine room. We'll see about that.... We have selected our builder, Lloyd, whom we are really excited to work with. Right now we are waiting on the permits to be issued and then we'll get started. I am anticipating breaking ground by the end of the month. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Lloyd is going to build us a sample board of our chosen materials. That will be really helpful to see if what we like in isolation will look good on the entire house. We're hoping to get that done next week, as well as the house staked.

We expect this house to take about 11 months to build. Let's get started.....
