So Exciting!

I'm SO excited to announce that we've started putting up our siding!!!!!!!  I'm running around in circles and doing a little dance.  woo hoo!  Okay, maybe I'm not doing that on the outside but that's what I feel like doing on the inside!  Anything other than electrical and plumbing.  I'm sure Nathan is even more excited about it than I am since he's the one doing the work.  I think siding was a good choice to work on this weekend.  We needed the motivation, to do something that had noticeable change and progress!  And not to mention that siding is finishing work, something that indicates a finished product!

Bob got the main septic hole dug, so right now there is a huge 8 foot deep hole on the side of our house waiting for our septic tank to be delivered this coming Tuesday.

The propane tank was also delivered, it will not stay where it's at in the pictures.  Note to self in planning out a house; consider where your propane tank will go.  We finally decided to put it behind our garage, it will be the most out of site there from all my windows.  Its a big ugly white tank that will definitely need bushes around it to hide it!  They'll come and dig and run the line to the house this Thursday and we'll get the tank filled.

Nate also picked up our water heater tank.  It's huge!  I don't think we'll ever run out of hot water in this house!  Hot showers all around!

Lots of great things happening!  Which is good because winter is around the corner here and the list is still long of things that need to be done before we can move in.

We really appreciate your continued prayers!
