New Home is Taking Shape!

Get a load of this! Things are happening so quickly, it's mind-blowing! This is our house, is hard to believe it's coming to fruition... all the planning and organising is starting to form into something real and tangible! I think reality will really set in when we start paying off the mortgage, but for now, we can be happy and excited! The picture below shows the floor beams of our house. Scotty is standing in a corner of our living room, the boards jutting out beyond him are our bedroom, the gap in front of him will be our deck, and the boards jutting out to the right (opposite our bedroom) is the rumpus room. The view is just awesome, can't wait for the trees to grow. Hidden behind all the timber on the front left of the photo is our garage, which now has a concrete floor. The builder says the frame will be up this week and the roof the next week after that.

Here's Scotty and Zacman standing under our bedroom, it's about 3m high, nice and breezy.

And here's the view to the west (bit washed out, was a sunny day). We saw a snake on the road the other day, right near that campervan. We're glad we'll be up high and away from him and his friends!
