The Ridiculously Huge House!!

Here are the long awaited photos of our new house! I couldn't get all of the rooms, but imagine a dormitory and you get the idea. We'll have a video tour posted soon. From Left to Right: Front view, Side view, Back view, Entry-way, Laundry room, Taylor's room.

Home Again, for the First Time

The time has finally come (as of last week) that the Lees have moved into to their own house. They are completely moved into the house, though they are still unpacking a little. I was there this summer, during the finish work, and the it looks amazing. Only the landscaping is unfinished, and I haven't heard if it will be done before winter.

Despite the unfinished landscaping, we will still post pictures, I just have to remind Susan. Susan has taken some good pictures, and she posted some of them.

6 months later

So it has been six months... and the whole world looks different!! The house is being built really fast, we should be done by the end of July! Every where we look or go there are blessings. The insurance company has actually been wonderful.. not what we expected. They have covered everything so far and we just got word they will cover all the construction cost. The contractor is right on top of things and the project has had no delays.. he also is giving us a great bargain. The bank, the schools, and strangers in the community all have pitched in to help!! Today the weather is even cooperating. We would like to thank all of you also. We know you have helped and prayed for us... we are sorry we haven't been able to say thank you personally to all of you, but we think it constantly. THANK YOU!!!

Great News Everyone

Erica Graduated from BYU this weekend! Lexi drove down to Provo from Rexburg, and we camped out in the Dayton's house; thank you very much Dayton's.

Wow, little Erica is already a college grad. We toured campus and visited the museums. The campus sure has changed a lot since I attended. There are so many new and beautiful buildings, they should have built them 25 years ago.

Lexi also turned the big 2-0 on Sunday! To celebrate, on Saturday, we went to Salt Lake City and Park City. In Park City it was...snowing. After buying her some presents we went to Chili's, had dinner, and met up with some of her friends.

We have laughed a lot this weekend and tomorrow we have to go back to our sober lives. We will probably take the nasty rainy weather with us back to Seattle. Hopefully, the Dayton's will forgive us for bringing it to Provo.

Preliminary Floor Plans

My parents are working towards rebuilding the house. They have the old foundation painted, and blueprints have been drawn up. I think the final plans were approved Saturday (Feb. 19th), but I have not seen them yet. This is a house the architect designed; my parents new house will sport the peaked rooflines featured here.
