A Foundation to Build Upon

We have a foundation. Next stop a HOUSE. Gotta run to work just wanted to put up the exciting picture.

Our driveway will be on the left side and the bay window of our front room is onthe right. The front room will be my office. Although the house does not include a window seat I would like to build on for my office. I think it will be a nice place for JJ to sit when it storms out. In Arizona it storms so rarely that he likes to watch the lightning and the rain. We ahve heard the it storms a lot more out in Queen Creek which is why it was so easy to convince JJ to move out there.

What a New Week Brings

Yesterday I drove up to our lot and took a couple of pictures. It doens't look all that different but before they pour the foundation they have to water down the pad to compress the ground. This is what the next step looks like.

Today I started training for a new position. I am now going to be the catering coordinator as well as my current position as the cafe, lounge, and ballroom manager. This sounds like soooo much fun. I have a lot to learn but fortunately I have worked the actual events for the past 4 years and am very familiar with what we have to offer.

I have started a new blogger to post pictures of our events with little tidbits of information. I want to use this website to giev to my guests to show work that we have done in the past. I will also be putting together banquet presentations tailored to each of the clubs (such as tennis, bridge, golf) and show ideas we have for their events. The new site is www.cottonwoodcountryclubbanquets.blogspot.com

The Look of Progress

I just took a week off and couldn't manage to find anything post worthy. Now I do have some great news though. They have now gotten back the construction permits and have dug for the plumbing. Our lot is now ready for the foundation to be poured. It should be poured early next week. I am going to the interiors place this Wednesday to pick the interiors for our house. I have to bring pictures of the stuff we have at home. I am going to bring a drawer from our bedroom set and the family room because it is open to the kitchen. Here is the latest picture of our house.
