"Any Day Now" has finally arrived! Our new home started today with the first cut in the land! Luke rode his bike to the block today and called me on my mobile to tell us that there was a huge back hoe on the block digging into the earth. We jumped into the car and drove around, the kids were beside themselves with excitement when we turned the corner and they saw the soil getting moved all about.
Erin had an absolute ball running around in the freshly cut ground right where her bedroom will be, she was extremely excited by the house next door and chasing Laura around.
Laura and Erin had to climb up the fence again, which seems to becoming a tradition each visit.
This is the view of the cut in the land from the back fence, and will be the back of the house, Jennie's bedroom and the rumpus room windows will look out into the backyard.
Here is a photo of Laura standing in her bedroom.
Here's Jennie in her bedroom.
Erin just gravitates to any mound of dirt and squeals with delight as she climbs to "the top of the big hill" as she likes to put it.
Today was a wonderful day filled with excitement and joy with the house finally starting after many months of planning, it sure has been a lesson in patience, especially for Jennie, Laura, Luke and Erin.
