It has begun!







A big day today.... the driveway has been created in it's new location and the tennis court has been removed. (It is actually now part of the driveway!) Last week we had 4 trees removed - 3 for the driveway and 1 large red oak (which we hope will someday be our dining room table) where our septic will be placed. We obtained our erosion control plan permit last week and now have silt fence surrounding the site. Tomorrow the footprint of the house will be raised 4 feet - 2' for the foundation and then 2' more for the surcharge that will sit until the beginning of July. Our car in the photo is parked approximately where the garage will be, and the large piles are in our dining room/kitchen area. I'll try to get a floorplan posted here soon.

How exciting! I can't wait to see it all in person. I'm sure someone needs to watch the boys while you're out there playing.
