Home, Sweet, Home

Here it is... now time for landscaping...

The road you can see on the left-hand side of the picture is an Orem city service road. It also allows access to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. It is sooooooo fun to walk outside and step right onto a trail to go hiking. I love it!

Does it look like it is ready for us to move in?

So our house was supposed to be done by now... look at Allana's face in this picture... It makes me laugh. It is like she is shocked that it won't be finished in time for her birthday. It would have been nice, but I think it has been a blessing in a lot of ways that it has taken the extra time to get it finished. This too shall pass, right?

The house is breezy, but the sunset is AMAZING!

Andy finally had a camera around for one of the spectacular sunsets we've seen from our place. The pictures definitely don't do the view justice. Beautiful.

Cement Trucks Galore

The kids and I hiked up to the trail to watch the cement truck pumping in the basement walls. It was pretty crazy to see the line of cement trucks on our street waiting for their turn. It is so exciting!!!

Big Machines

The excavation is complete and they hauled off 2 dump truck loads of dirt. The kids have loved watching the big machines work. We like to hike onto the trail and watch.

Piles of Dirt!!!

The girls were so excited to run up and climb on the huge mountain of dirt! It is going to be quite a challenge to keep Allana clean for kindergarten if we are visiting our building lot.

Gideon has a hard time walking on all the loose dirt and rocks, but he loves sitting down and throwing all the rocks within his reach.

Maybe we can keep it like this for a sandbox :)
