Well its been a couple of weeks since anything interesting has happened really, but things are moving right along now. We broke ground two weeks ago, and by this past Friday we had our full foundation completed. We were a little concerned about the grade of our lot, but now that we have a foundation we can tell a little more about the elevation of the yard and we are much more pleased with it. We are both very happy with our brick choice and honestly it makes us wish we had a partial brick front so that we could see more of it. The thing I am most happy about right now though, is that due to the grade of our yard and the crawl space, we are going to have a rather tall garage. I'm hoping this will not only give me more head room, but also give me noticeably more space over the garage doors for storage.
Aside from that we also stopped in today to speak with our sales rep, and were surprised to met our future neighbors. They seem very nice and we look forward to getting to know them better. We were able to put in a request to have our island turned perpendicular to what it is on the floor plan. We figure this makes the island more usable when working at the stove/oven, and also opens up the path from the living room to the back door, and garage door/mud room area.
