Breaking ground

Building has finally begun! The end is in sight! After an extremely long winter, short rainy spring, and long frustrating time working with the bank, we are finally in the ground! The kids and I had fun watching the excavator this morning. Then we came back in the evening to check on the progress (climb on dirt piles). Three months... I know it will fly! Here's hoping for better weather from here on out. Rain is good, but some sun is needed too!

I have to add the latest funny Ellie quote. At one point she took off her shirt while dirt climbing. When asked, "Where did your shirt go?" She replied, "It's in the back of the car, taking a little rest."
