Our new house!!!

After putting offers in on houses and being told the house is ours and then having it all fall through a few weeks later Jacob continued to look and came across some open lots in Grantsville where we could buy the lot and build the house without going over our budget. We went out and looked at them the next day and decided to put money down on the end lot. Three days later we went in and met with the builder and chose our colors and all that fun stuff. They should be breaking ground today or within the next few days. We are hoping to close and be moving into the house at the end of April.
We are going to be on .5 an acre which is next to telephone lines so we won't have a neighbor on that side and behind us is an open HOA park area so we won't have any backyard neighbors. An existing equestrian trail ends at our front yard so we have easy access to the trails that wind through the neighborhood. We are only 4 miles from Grantsville Reservoir which means some good 4wheeling trails nearby.
Another big plus is that we are only about a mile from Tony, Angie and girls so even though we are moving out to Grantsville we are still near family.
We never imagined we would be moving into a brand new house at this point in our lives, but we are and we are so excited!!
Here are a few pictures of our lot. We will keep everyone posted as things progress.
