Welcome!

Thanks for visiting our site. We figured this might be the easiest way to update everyone on the progress of our new home.

For those that still don't know, we sold our starter townhome back in October. With the market the way it was, we were told we'd be lucky if we sold in six months. To everyone's suprise, we were out of our house a month later! Since early November, we've been living in a one bedroom apartment near our old home. We shopped around in Urbana, a town about 10 minutes north of Germantown, and purchased a new home in the Villages of Urbana, a brand new community up there. We've been patiently waiting for the rest of our unit to fill up so construction can begin.

Stay tuned for updates as we get them!!

The Framing Begins!

So, Ken we were both out of town this weekend, but we'd heard the framing had begun on the house and we didn't want to have to wait until next weekend to see the progress. So, despite a cross-country flight back to Maryland, Ken raced up to Urbana and manage to snap some shots right before sunset. Our basement is pretty much framed! Below are some of the images from all sorts of different angles. The frames are even up for the floors to the main level. This week they're supposed to be working on all of the walls and the roof. We're going to head back up on Thursday evening and watch as they lift our roof up on the house with a big crane. Hopefully we'll get some good pics or maybe even a video :)
