The Journey of our Little Cabin

Finally...the day has arrived!

And, the house has arrived also!

I would love to tell you all about it, but a picture can speak a thousand words.

And I got lots of pictures!!

So, since the pictures can tell the story better than I can, I will let them do all of the talking!

It all began when we met the delivery guys at the parking lot...

Let's go!

On our way!

We're almost there!

Oh, so that is how it's done?!

Getting it just right...

Leveling it...

More blocks coming up!

Home Sweet Home!

Our little cabin is right where it belongs!

Almost There...

Gravel is here!

     The gravel has arrived!  Yay!  This means only one thing...the house will be here soon!  Now, we are mostly just at the mercy of the weather and the delivery guy's schedule.

     A thunderstorm is scheduled soon, and hopefully it is just the right amount of rain.  Enough to wet down the gravel dust, and compact it just right.  But, not so much rain that the delivery guy can't get in, deliver, and get out...without getting stuck.

     I don't like being at the mercy of the weather, but I guess that's just the way it is sometimes.

     But, life is good!  We almost have our house.  The hubby and I are both in good health at the moment. Children are all happy and healthy. The countryside is beautiful and in full bloom.

 And, most importantly, the hubby bought these for me for Easter this past weekend!  Love spending time with my Peeps!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!! 

   

Getting Closer!!

Surveying the Scene

We are getting closer! 

In the last few weeks, the hubby and I have been going over design ideas to decide where the kitchen and bathroom will go.  The next step was to decide on where certain fixtures should go...such as, any fixture that will need a pipe!

So, the hubby has been over at the property laying down the pipes, according to our design.  He has also been surveying the area to where these pipes are eventually going to end.  

All of these little details that had never crossed the mind of a girl raised in town!

Oh, well...you learn something new everyday!

So, now, he finishes up the last of this, and scratch it off of his to-do list.

Next up, delivery of the gravel, to ensure everything is as level as possible.

AND...drumroll, please!

Delivery of our house!!!

YAY!!
