Permitted!

Our plans have been approved and we have permits to start the addition in hand!! This is especially huge because Tom and I did the structural part of the plans and it didn't get kicked back (we're in the county so they don't kick back much, but anyway...).

Tom and Dad started clearing the side of the xst'g house to get ready to dig footers sometime this week. Are we really doing this? Sweet!

While outside digging, Tom found this interesting looking bug (we're always on the hunt for bugs around here). Anybody know what it is?
