Hello there!

Russell and I wanted to create a blog so everyone can keep track of our progress with our house. As you all know we finally got our building permit on August 11th!! (Happy birthday mom!!). A. Sharon and U. John really pulled through and went into the county and fought them on issuing our permit. Well she knew the right buttons to push! My first call from Russell updating me on the situation and the progress was - "we should have a permit in 4 weeks". He called a bit later "she has them down to 2 weeks". A little later I got a call- "next week". Then the final call - "by noon TOMORROW!!!" WHOOHOO we are in business!!
