A New House

With a new baby on the way, we hurried to go house hunting as our current two bedroom townhouse started feeling way too small.  We finally settled on building a new house in our neighborhood on a really cool lot. It is .25 acre,  a creek behind it and no houses in the field behind that, one neighbor to  one side and common ground and pathway to the other side.   We picked out everything that we could afford for the house, color of cabinents and counter tops etc, put the construction deposit down and waited.   Finally almost a month later they started digging only to find a spring on our lot, yes you read right a spring of water. hence the subdivision name (Spring Creek).  As much as we like the lot and waited extra time to get it, we are a little nervous of future problems  that could arise with having a spring in your front yard and will probably switch to the lot across the street.  Side note- if we had started off choosing this lot, they already had approval to start on this lot and could be halfway done with it by now.  Such is life.


We are super excited about having extra space, I am excited about having an official guest bedroom, Ryan is excited about doing new projects around the house and having a yard to landscape.
