But this current Mother's day ROCKS because our driveway is finished and I get so excited I could SCREAM when I am there!!!!
Many of you know (who read my blog or know me personally) that this has been a long time coming. We have had the land FOREVER and when I say that, I literally grew up there. My parents owned it and they live directly behind where we are moving. The problem was, it never had water. And when I say never had it, meaning no city water and 3 wells dug later, nada, nothing, ZILCH! We gave up and forgot about it. That was until about 6 1/2 yrs ago when water came down that road a bit, but stopped right before our land. We thought it would take a year maybe two tops. Well here we are almost 7 yrs later, but SO BLESSED AND HAPPY to be here! Sometimes I have to pinch myself so I know it's really happening. Anyway, you get the idea, I'm excited! :)
Here my kids are playing in the dirt piles and having a blast! This is what it's all about!
Thank you for listening and I hope your Mother's day ROCKS too!!!!

Kristi, thanks for stopping by my blog! Yay, for the driveway! That's so exciting. We built our house 2 years ago, and we are just getting our grass planted now. It's such a work in progress. Good luck in your home building adventure!! Happy Mother's Day!!
I'm totally jealous of your place! Happy Mother's Day.
I'm so, so excited for you Kristi! Seven years? Is that really possible? You have worked hard and been patient and I'm so happy your dream is coming true. I'm so excited to watch this adventure unfold for you.
What a beautiful homeplace! Gorgeous.

Thanks for coming by my blog. I was just looking through yours and I take it you are building a new house on that land. How exciting. We built our house fifteen years ago and then have made a lot of changes and updates since. I will drop by again and hope you do the same.
