a penny and a cross.

good news: our lot officially looks like a large basketball court.

right before the concrete was poured, tom took two things.

a cross. and a 2009 penny.

he went to the part of the lot where our bedroom will be.

and put the cross and the penny there, under the concrete.

love him.

here we grow!

It's official.

Today we started building our new home.

Labor day weekend brings plans of ordering the initial supplies, hitting Home Depot sales, 

and scouring over design magazines as the kiddos take their naps. 

and as this is our first official post, we must make our first official predicitons 

of when our project will be complete.

tom: 1.15.10

yaya: 3.31.10

This lot will no longer be filled with just potential. dreams. and adirondack chairs.

...here we grow!
