It's starting to get exciting at our building site; almost every time we come for a visit something new has been going on. Today they filled our foundation/garage and leveled the lot. See, when you come from the road, there isn't a mountain of dirt anymore!

Our nice (temporary) gravel driveway. Eventually most of it will be paved.

View from the side.

And back down to the road.

And this is the wall of the den with the tierred retaining walls. I was wearing the wrong shoes to go traipsing through the wild there for pictures.

From the back.

I think we're going to have enough flat part to put in a pool....of course I mean a kiddie pool ;)

The house progresses...

We stopped at our new house today to see how it's coming along. Can't wait for the framing to start! This is the view from the side of mum's garage looking towards the wild bit beside our house.


And from the yard looking up at the back of our house.

Here's another view where you can see how they're already smoothing our yard back down.

And the view into the garage.
