Finally!

Yes, I finally got the rest of our Florida picts on here. These barely skim the surface because I took over 500 pictures.

Alan headed to work in a town on the ND/MN border yesterday. He said that it looks like he could be gone a week or so. Then he will head to Penn, ND to do another job. Yay! It is finally picking up again! The weather is cooperating! The snow is rapidly melting and there is a flood warning all across ND. So keep that in your prayers! We shouldn't be affected because we live far enough away from the river.

We met with our contractors yesterday and it looks like they may be able to start digging our foundation within the next couple of weeks! Yay again! I am really nervous! That is just a huge undertaking, a lot of money, lots of stressful details, and Alan will probably be gone for most of it... Good thing my mom and dad raised me to be strong! ha ha I am just worried about things like making all of the fixtures in the house match and making the house flow right, making sure that the colors look perfect... Oh Yikes! I'm going to give myself an anxiety attack just before bed! ha ha If any of you have tips or pointers as far as the house building thing goes, I'm all ears!! I'd love any and all input. (unless it's not going to make my life any easier!☺)

I'll keep you posted along the way!! Until next time...
