Well this has been a long time, but we are ready to start our blog on the adventure of building a house. Today was a milestone day so I thought it would be a good day to post our first blog. We signed a deal just before Christmas. Today we signed the blueprints. The next step is to get the permits and in about 4-6 weeks Rob should have the file. At that point there will be more frequent blogs as we can actually see things happening.














This evening we also had a good discussion with an interior designer who gave us some really good ideas about colors and some finishing details. Next we have to visit all the trade partners and select flooring, kitchen cabinets, lighting, and everything else. It is going to be very busy for the next few weeks/months but we are looking forward to it.

Wow! I am the first to comment on this blog.

Just a suggestion... Rachel won't be able to comment if you do not allow anonymous comments.

Great idea. We will follow with interest and bookmark your blog. We have done some painting in our house and also some tiling. It looks very different and in a few weeks we will put some pictures on our blog so you can see it. A designer helps with color schemes and so on.

Hmm, let's see if this lets me post! So it sounds like we'll start building right around the time I get home. That should be exciting!
