Spring Update

We're long over-due for an update of house plans and puppy pictures that don't involve late-night angst or moose wrangling...

Here are our current 1st floor plans - hot off the press today.  2nd floor should be coming soon.  All of this to go to the engineer this week...Then we'll order the foundation blocks and lumber, etc.  Its a bit small, but hopefully you can enlarge it somehow in your browser.  Currently most excited about the laundry shoot in the pantry...which will also come from the closet above...





Today is the first day that leaves are starting to emerge on the birch trees!!  This April was, on average, 8degrees F warmer than normal, so even though we had flurries last week and cooler temps, looks like green is on its way!!


Wilson make it home from his moose adventure last week unscathed, although very sore from running and chasing wildlife for 5+ hours straight...


These pics of Max are a couple weeks old.  Max is now officially taller than Wilson - and he keeps growing!  He met rain for the first time this week and was hilarious snapping at it and trying to bite it. We got him in Dec. and he took his house training so seriously that he would only pee on the snow for quite a while.  Things were touch and go for a couple weeks, but fortunately the snow melted gradually, so he figured it out..

A couple weeks ago we taped out the first floor dimensions to see what it would be like... Here's a pic of Tom and the dogs in the kitchen, between the stove and the island.  Joe is standing on the dining room table..

Hope you all are enjoying spring-time!

  1. Dear Sarah and Tom, and Joe too! Enjoyed the blog. John is here and we studied the house plans. They enlarge really well. Was shocked to see how big Max has gotten. What size will he be when full grown??
    Will check in again. Much love MOM
