Here we go!

So things are really happening out at the ol' place.

Finalized the closing of the construction last Wednesday and we are off and running!  The day before closing, the land was cleared for the home site, and the day after closing we now have a port-o-potty and the slab forms are up!

I guess it's been awhile since any regular posting here, but things have been rather hectic and finding the time to post has proven difficult.  Okay, it's probably just laziness, but procrastination has always been my strong suit. 

We found a designer/builder whom has been a tremendous help getting us to this point by either being patient, reassuring, or understanding.  We finally nailed down a floor plan that seems to work for us and after what seemed like forever, he's in the process of making it happen.

A follow up to our wildlife valuation, Texas Parks and Wildlife Dept (TPWD) had completed their evaluation and sent it to us the first of January.  I setup a time to meet with the county appraiser back in February so I could turn in the paperwork and hopefully get the property under wildlife valuation.  He said that he had hundreds to go through and that he was the only one processing them so the response may be as late as April.  Still waiting.
