We are building!!!

Our lot is about a third of an acre!!

So. this is it. It's in the beginning stages, but this is where our future home will sit. After looking with a realtor for houses one night, we decided to look into building. I have never wanted to build because of the hassles I have heard from friends and family. I didn't want to have to buy land first, and then find someone to build the house for us. Well, some friends of ours(who happen to also be band parents)own a construction company. I was talking with the wife at Jason's last concert and she mention that her husband, Jared, had a sub-division in Nibley that we could possibly build in. We were excited but hesitant because we weren't sure if we could get the kind of house we want in the price range we wanted to stay in . We met with Jared a few days later and he told us that because of the economy the way it is, that he is building at cost right now to keep his guys busy and to stay out of the red. This company mainly does comercial construction, but he had to go back to building houses to when the economy did what it did last year. We discovered that it was cheaper to build then to buy new at this point in time. We are so excited. We signed contract last week and they should start digging by the end of the week. I will be adding more pics as progress happens. Oh, did I mention that he said he could have the house done in 90 days. Yup, that's the end of July!!!!! We can't wait to have a place we can call our own.

Easter/ Spring Break

Morgyn got a kite for Easter so we went and flew it on Monday. It was perfect kite weather. For those of you who may wonder, yes, we are in the road, but it's a cul-de-sac. We went to the schools field shortly after. A very fun weekend for us.


Sunday was church of course and we all went to all meeting. Amazing. I think it's a first for me anyway. RSV season is mostly over so we can all go again. We went to Grandma and Grandpa Petrovich's ward. Morgyn and Whitney wore their matching jumper Great Grandma P. made. They looked so cute and were good little girls for the day. We had a nice Easter dinner of ham and potato's.

We had a fun- filled, busy Easter weekend since it was also spring break for Jason. We first spent Friday-Saturday with Grandma and Grandpa Mann's. I thought it would be fun to have an Easter egg hunt on saturday so we did that in the morning. Funny thing is, this is the first time we have ever had one. I guess since there are nine grandchildren now, there is enough to make it fun. Luckily the weather held out for us and the kids had lots of fun. I think the parents had fun too!!
