Some of you know and some of you had no way of knowing that we are moving down south. Jim's company has an office down there and we have considered this move for almost a year before requesting it this past fall. Once the wheels started moving it seems like this tiny idea picked up speed rather quickly. And now we are barreling headlong into this great adventure.
We have decided to build a home, because you can build it for the same price you can buy it used- why inherit others problems when you can create problems of your own?
We have a plot of land - something I never had on my list of life accomplishments but it's a pretty good one to add and then cross off.
They will build it in 5 months- making moving day sometime around early to mid August. Next week we will spend 4-6+ hrs picking out all the finishes (door knobs, tile for bathrooms, light fixtures, flooring, windows....) We plan to then spend the next 2 weeks in couples therapy.
When it's all said and done it will look something like this
So stay tuned for all the adventures and inevitable mishaps as we journey into home building.
