Our House
We're Finally In!!!
On the afternoon of November 17, 2003, we obtained a

from the county!

It only took days from the day we
broke ground but we are finally in the house!

Future updates to this site will be made when straw and
seeding are complete and when work begins on the
deck itself (most likely in the Spring of '04).

Welcome to our little corner of the world wide web.  This site is meant to be shared with family and friends to keep them informed of our progress that we are making on building our house.

Be sure to use the Refresh button (or the F5 key) to ensure you have the
