Our New House

June 15th marked a pretty big step in the Amestoy Family. We started building our first home. We closed on our lot on the 11th and got to work right away. Our friends Meredith and Lance are the ones that got us thinking about building and have helped us get to where we are today. Meredith is a good friend of mine and a local realtor at Keller Williams here in Bozeman. Lance is a builder. Great combo! We met and starting talking about our options and before we knew it, we were sitting at the bank getting loan paperwork together. Now here we are with the house in progress. Here are a few pictures that capture the stages of the building.

This is day one:

Day two:

Day three: We have a hole and the footings are in place.

I missed day four when they were pouring the foundation, but here is day five. We have a foundation in place! This picture is looking at the garage and in the background will be the living room and the bedrooms.

This is the garage and behind it will be the kitchen and living room.

Another angle at the kitchen. This time from the front door side.

And this would be the bedroom side of the house.

We sure are excited about this house. We just can't wait to move in now. As more progress is made, more pictures will be taken and postings will be posted. Stay tuned!!
