Playing In The Yard – The First Time!

We’re in the stages of plotting our home and figuring out just how we want it to sit on the lot. It all feels like such a slow process but it should start moving along in the days to come. Can’t wait!

I met up with my dearest for lunch yesterday and we drove out to the lot. The survey was complete and we’re doing our homework.

My Dearest – at the back 40 ~ He’s plotting all the property points on his GPS then he plans to plug all the points into the lot online so that he can then decide exactly where he wants the house to sit on the lot. It’s nice being married to an engineer, he is so detailed and I love that about him.


My man in the jungle – Oh right, our back yard… He found another stake!

We’re having another gorgeous autumn day, the snow is falling and all is right in the world. It has warmed up to the point that it’s comfortable (no longer in the teens – that’s bone freezing weather for me) and I’m enjoying the beautiful day with balmy temps in the low 30’s.

By 9:00am each branch was coated


Wishing you a joyous day!

  1. I am really looking forward to watching the progress of your house!

    Hard to imagine snow when it’s in the 70’s here…although we are dipping into the high 40’s tonight.

    I got a smile out or your saying that your husband found a steak (meat that you eat) instead of a stake (wood pounded into the ground). You’d really have some amazing property if your “back forty” grew steaks. “-)
