just a little longer....

the usda called again asking for more info - so I am getting that in the mail right now, and then she says we will finally be approved!

edited to add - we got the call from the NNHC a little while later and he said that she did approve us, and he sent me some papers to sign, and I have e-mailed them back to him. So we got the lot we wanted and the house plan.

Still no idea when we will start building - he says there are others who have applied, but no one that is for sure, so he has to wait for them to be approved. So we need 3 more families to get thru that long application and approval process before we will even have an idea of when we will get to start building.
(AJ and Jessie, by the way, have only one more family that needs to be approved and then their group can get started - so they will possibly start building in a few weeks. They have their lot and house plan all picked out as well.)

here is a picture of about where our lot is - it's not a good shot, because I took this before we knew that we could have that spot, and it was not even started being developed yet - so in a week or so, I will go back out to Corinne and take an actual picture of it. but I LOVE that there will not be any homes build behind us, so we will have a nice view of the mountains - our house will face south, and the backyard is north.

That is awesome news! good luck with the house building. Our bishop told us that building a house or adding on to a house is a very hard thing and if your marriage survives that you can survive anything. I totally believe it but the rewards in the end are all worth it!

Hooray on getting the lot, etc. I'm excited for you, but will be even more so when you get to start building. Your lot looks like it will be lovely.

Congrats on five years of marriage! A long time to put up with a man ;)

But, I guess it can be worth it!
