Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my new blog!

We are just beginning the process of building a new home, and we are building green! I know there are a lot of people out there who want to know what this process looks like, so I thought I'd share it with you!

We have actually been working for months on this new home, and you will get insights into what we have done so far as we move along.

This week, we finally broke ground - and now we have a big hole in the ground and mounds of dirt all over! The pictures were taken at about 7:00 am on Thursday!

I can't wait to see how everything comes together! I'll be posting updates and pictures as we move along in the process. I'm told the basement walls will be in the ground by Friday - barring any bad weather. We seem to be blessed with great weather right now, so we are moving along well now!

I hope you'll come along with us on this exciting ride and see how you really can build a green home of your own!

Please feel free to ask questions and leave comments for me. I would love to share information with you on all the great things that can be done to build a green, energy efficient home. I hope to inspire you in some way for your own home - whether you plan to build a home of your own, or just want to improve your current abode.
