Caleb's update

Well excavating has started! it was a gray rainy day here at the farm and our contractor Mike has been laying low with a cold :(  but that didn't stop the workers from getting a lot done.  We had to say good-bye to the goldfish pond today. Here are some pictures of the days work.

Caleb's update

Well we started work on the house finally!  The workers haven't done a lot yet, just some surveying and things, but weve been hearing some banging and electric sawing.  The excavator is suppose to arrive on Wednesday in the late afternoon and the'll start digging on Thursday!  We've got a really exciting plot plan that was done by Aunt Lynn, our landscape architect, but the file is too big to download onto here.  We'll work on it and see if we can figure out how to get it in here.  It looks REALLY cool!

Caleb's update

Yesterday we got our building permit from the town hall and our Builder/Contractor has already hired an excavator, so we will probably be starting work on Monday YAY! They're going to be building the new front porch first. Hope you're all well. Caleb

Introduction to Macker the Tractor

We now have a new family member, Macker. He is a hard worker with a big heart (engine). He has been helping with the mowing, moving, and has been all around helpful.  Here are some pictures of him.

Caleb's update

We have been asked by lots of people to start a blog, so here it is.  (Thanks to Auntie Mouse/Annie Bartol for her technical support) We will be trying to update our blog as much as possible (every three days or so) although we may get behind sometimes. Well, the update on the house right now:  the workers have taken off the asbestos siding, and now the architects are working to finalize the plans for the front of the house. Hopefully we will start work on Wednesday. Keep your fingers crossed.
