The first few steps...

This evening we went to our "land" and staked out the driveway. We staked out the house last week.  Well WE didn't, but my sweet husband and a friend did.  I cannot tell you how exciting this is for all of us!! 

Kris's job was to babysit Madi in John's truck!  Here he is showing her a video on the ipod.   My job was to lead the way of how I wanted the driveway and of course, take pictures!   John and Johnny drove in the stakes.  So here are a few pictures of the beginning of our journey!!! :)


Can you see the house staked out in the backround? :)
