We spent 4 solid hours shoveling and snow plowing today. Do you know how weird it is to shovel out the INSIDE of your house? I'm going to be sore tomorrow... :0(
The good news? We are all cleaned up and ready to stack logs tomorrow! YAY!!

WE'VE COME A LONG WAY, BABY!
I can't believe how long it's been since I posted! Let me just say, it's good to be back! So much has happened in the last few months - let me get you caught up!
Summer, 2010 - finalized the blue prints, the house appraised (that was a crazy experience!), closed on the construction loan and set ground breaking date!
October 5, 2010 - Ground breaking day! I still can't believe it. When I look back at those pictures I remember thinking "is it ever going to happen?" Yay God! So, so fun! Excavation began mid October, and then the basement poured.
November, 2010 - All the concrete finally finished, 1st load of logs were delivered from the log home company, I left for Israel, my family and friends started stacking logs without me! CRAZY!
December, 2010 - I can believe how cold it is! It really slowed down the stacking of logs as we had to fight hypothermia. I mean, really! Totally annoying! I'm ready for spring!
January, 2011 - I thought December was cold - I should have been happy for the high 30's. I have come to the realization that, if you really put your mind to it - and really good friends will do it with - you can totally do things, and endure things that you never believed you could do! We have been stacking logs every chance we get - even when it's 20 degrees. The house is getting taller, and we are almost ready for the roof. Thank goodness! I ordered my kitchen this week, and they makes me really, really happy!!
