So, it has been six months since my last post.
Long story short, Kyle got the Chief Pharmacist job and we are staying in Cortez forever.
So, we decided to homeschool (that would be another post) and to build a house.
We found a great piece of land (3.5 acres) outside of town with great views in a new subdivision.
They broke ground last week, but it has been slow going due to VA inspection problems.
Here is the view of the La Plata mountains from the house.
Here is the flattened parcel where the house will be.
They are digging the footings.
They are laying gravel for the driveway.
All the footings are dug. The lines are dug and laid for the plumbing, phone and electricity.
We are waiting on the VA inspector so they can pour concrete. The framing was supposed to start next week, but now we aren't sure.
I will try to post each week to show the progress on the house. They originally told us we could move in by Thanksgiving, but with these set backs it might be December.

This is so exciting!
I've been thinking of you so much lately as I've been couponing. It fun!
What do you do with the coupons that you don't want? We should all swap!
Congratulations you guys; that's so exciting! The views from your "house" are absolutely amazing. It's actually a bit surreal. Way to go on homeschooling. I've been homeschooling Steven for two years now and we love it. Of course, I don't know how I'm going to do it once Margaret starts kindergarten next year, but I guess we'll figure it out. Glad things are going so well for you guys. We miss you!
I didn't realize it was 3.5 acres. Very nice. Can't wait to see the walls up!
