Introducing (FINALLY), our house!!!

Ok, so you can't tell what it's going to look like yet. . . . but isn't it great?!!!!! After almost FIVE months in the city office waiting for approval (thank you, Tooele city, for your exceedingly gifted ability to be anal-retentive and over-zealous. . . we honor you.) In the end we are glad that the city felt the need to be so painfully accurate with every jot and tittle of our plans because we know that it will be perfect. More perfect than it's occupants, no doubt. Moving on.

Our awesome builder, Tom Rainwater, was chomping at the bit to get going, so since last Friday the land has been graded, surveyed, dug, and today they poured the foundation! In fact, they are moving so fast that these pictures, taken yesterday by our good friend and realtor, Christina, are now old. These show all the preparations before concrete. Tomorrow they will finish pouring, let it cure next week and then hook up to all the main city lines and backfill. By the end of the second week of March they will have framing started. Yippee!!!
