Slab-ulous!

Welcome to our slab!
See that little raised place in the back?  That is our dining room.   And see that pond in the background and the sun going down?  That will be our awesome view!  

The girls like going out there... then again, they like anytime they get to be pulled in a wagon!

Mary Allison was along for the ride, and Emma Lou, being our soon to be next door neighbor, always comes running when she sees us drive up! 
Ellie needed a diaper change, so I asked MA to take her to her "room" to change her.  I like kinda already knowing where the rooms are and such.  It is a crapshoot, but I try to step it off so I can tell where is where. In this next picture, they are either in the entrance foyer or Gabbi Girl's room?! 
Would you look at these two?  What did I do without them?
So anyway, this is our new homesite.  Oh, and now you can see the pasture way back there too!  And Todd and I spent last weekend out there trimming up limbs on those trees, so now our view is a little nicer too!  
Well, this week is framing, so I may have new pics to share!  
Have a good one.  And, Blanche, Holly, Kathryn, Sandy, Meredith, and Wendy.... you should have a prize coming in the mail this week!  :)

Kathryn said...

Ooh! Perfect timing! We have a house full of Grandgirlies, and they will be so excited!

Kathryn said...

Rats. I forgot to say how much I love your slab and view! Ah. Peaceful.

Wow, you are going to have a beautiful view! So jealous that you are already to the slab stage. We are working on buying some land (10 acres) and if the deal goes through, we are hopeful to build a big shed this fall, work on selling our house next spring and then building in the summer. Sound easy, but I have a feeling we have a long road ahead of us! Hope the whole building process goes well for you :)

I love the view! I'm excited about your SLAB. The next part of the building should go pretty quickly, shouldn't it? Seems like getting it under roof happens much sooner than it takes to finish everything inside.

What sweet "sister pics" of the girls...I love the one of Ellie smoochin' on her baby sis.

Have a great week!
