House Progress

As I have posted previously, we have started our new house! We are so excited. We have been waiting for this day for a long time. Johnny and I had a precious house in Oxford and we actually miss it (not the closet space, or lack thereof), and we had an "ok" house in Jackson (it was just a rip off for the $), and now we are living in an apartment in Tupelo (which is super nice, actually nicer than our house in Jackson, but its just not "ours"). So, we are definitely thrilled to finally have a house of our own. We are building in Spring Lake and we think it will be a great neighborhood for Ella to grow up in. She can ride her bike to the clubhouse and tennis courts and we can swim in the pool during the summers (until we put our own in), and Max can even swim in all the lakes. Johnny and I are just really excited about the years to come. Here are some pictures of the lot before they cleared all the trees. We wanted to keep 1 of the 4 massive oak trees, however, they were smack in the middle of the lot, soooooo they had to go!

And here are pictures once my Dad's workers started knocking down trees.....
