update on a few things

So we settled on the land on July 21st. We met the sellers and they were very nice. They are renting their own home and they have moved. The seem pretty sad about leaving the area of Milford Township. They say its awesome, and we will love living there.  We have stopped at the land a few times since then, have taken some friends over to see it. If anyone ever wants to come, let us know. We are slowly letting the cat out of the bag, we have posted pictures of the land on Facebook for all to see.. Its so fun.
We met with the builder on the 20th of July, we decided on a house plan, and he is taking it to his architect to get drawn. Our builder would like to start soon... maybe September? I guess its as quick as the plans can get drawn and accepted by the Township. The builder has also said it should only take about 4 months to build, once ground is broke. That's exciting! We now will have to think about putting our house up for sale. If anyone knows anyone interested let us know...I can give more details. We have a realtor... but did not sign anything with him yet, so if we can save $$ on commission, why not?
I have been told by a couple of our faithful followers that its hard to post comments. So feel free to post on the link from facebook if you have a comment. We would love comments!

On another note, I did hear back from the doctor and there is more cancer in my thyroid area. I am heading down to Jefferson on August 18th for an appointment, and they would probably like to do surgery before the end of the year. I don't know too much else on that, I will keep everyone updated as I hear. I am a little disapointed but I have done this surgery before and I know what to expect.... so it should turn out ok. No need to worry, its all in Gods Hands.

Here are some pictures...

  2. Okay, now that we cleared up the mom thing...
    It was great to spend time with you yesterday.

    I love the location of your new house site. I know you and Marcus will make it into a beautiful home! It is such a peaceful place and I pray all will go well as you plan and chose all your "stuff". It is something I always wanted to do. Maybe someday....
    Much love to you both. Linda

  3. Love the pictures of the land Sarah! Looks awesome! I can't believe you guys will have a new house in a few short months! That is super exciting.

    As for the cancer - I'm so sorry to hear they found more. How did your appointment go? Definitely keep posting updates! Take care!
