More construction pics...




These pics are actually a few days old... (they are taken from the back yard and from inside the basement) the subfloor is now in on the main level (the roof of the basement) so we can walk all over the top of the house!  The basement is almost entirely framed, just missing a closet and the walls that align with the concrete on the outer walls, so it's really coming together.  We got good news this week... the well driller came out and hit GREAT pressurized water at 60 feet.  The builder was "thrilled" with the result... I have to just trust him because the whole water issue is my biggest hang up during this build.  So we were happy to get that news.


We also are working on an offer for our current home!!!!!!  Ok, so we need LOTS of prayer... they came in really low, we countered, they sorta-countered (I guess) and now we're waiting until Monday to hear what may be next.  What it boils down to for them is they need a great deal money-wise and we are willing to help as much as we can so we can get out...  but we aren't giving this baby away!  I have to concede that I have no control over the situation, even though I am the acting realtor doing all the negotiating and it's SOOOO stressful!  So please pray for us!!

Wow! Good news on the house offer. I hope it goes through. And the construction looks like it is moving right along. Cool.
