We Have a Dig Date!

The official dig date is... March 5, 2013!!!!!
I'm thrilled we made it to this point and I'm so grateful to everyone who helped us get here!  My husband, dad, and brothers-in-law have worked tirelessly to get the lot cleared.  Also, as I type this, there is a crew scraping and digging and trenching through the ice storm and white out conditions we've had the past two days.  We're so lucky to have such wonderful people around us.

I plan to post pictures of the actual mud pit that's currently being created later today but, for now, here are two pictures of the beautiful weather we had on Monday when they brought the equipment to the lot.

Until Next Time,
Ciao!

Gorgeous sunny day on 2.25

Time to Set the Wheels in Motion

In my last post, I shared that we closed on our loan in January.  Within that week, Tracy at Wayne Homes shared that at that time, we could have a dig date within two weeks of our closing.  The LFD and I didn't love the idea of breaking ground and pouring footers for our home in what is historically the coldest month of a Western PA winter.
