Patience

Doing all the ground work before we break ground. Dale is busy getting prices from all the sub-contractors. So far we have the plumbing, electrical and framing prices. Of course we already have our price for our energy efficient spray foam insulation :) - Hopefully the beginning of the week we will have a materials cost from the building supply. Preparation is key and we know this but sometimes I have a hard time waiting!

Last weekend we selected where the driveway will come into the property. Dale met with the city to determine the size of tile to go under the drive. We also marked trees that we want to try to save when clearing the drive and lot. There is a big lone oak that will in the front yard near the house that we definitely want to keep and not disturb. Thinking about the water line and if we want to go through the woods or up the drive...Dale says prob up the drive.

Still thinking about exterior and interior. The house has a European look and thinking about Stone and stucco.... I will know when I see it! Enjoy the beautiful weather!
