Full Speed Ahead

House-related stuff is in full swing for us. On Friday, they scraped dirt around where they will dig to put the basement of our future house. They should be digging this week!! We also spent most of the weekend going to houses in the Parade of Homes. (I made it to over twenty houses - Jay made it to about ten). Our moms were able to join us and it was a lot of fun running around with them. We got some good ideas. In particular, Jay found the perfect idea for a future home theater room!!
Here are some pictures of our lot as of Friday evening...
View from back (SW) corner of where the house will be - in the distance is the city of Bismarck.

View of the stakes of the outline of where the house will be.

Obviously no much to look at now...soon there will be concrete poured and then once the house gets framed and sheeted, things should start picking up. In the meantime, if you're reading my blog updates, you'll just have to put up with these pictures!
Other than that, it's another quiet Sunday evening for us and the beagles. We've got another busy week of work ahead of us. Looking forward to NCAA b-ball championship tomorrow night as well as UND men's hockey in the Frozen Four on Thursday.
Have a great week everyone!

I'd love to do runs around the state this year. Can't wait for the house. The dirt looks real good.
