So, as the post below this one briefly indicated, for those of you who didn’t already know (is there anyone reading this that didn’t already know?), Raquel and I bought a house last month. Ever since I relocated to Texas five years ago, it has been a dream of mine to own my own home and through my personal growth across the last five years, Raquel’s and my marriage, and a series of some fine “blessings” we received between the middle and the end of last year, the dream started to turn into something slightly more within reach than it had ever been. Raquel didn’t necessarily share the dream of mine up unil just a few days before we actually signed the contract, but as we sit here a month later, I think it’s safe to say that she’s about as excited as I am, if not moreso.

When we bought the house, it was my intention to do something with this web site with the purpose of chronicling the progress of the build of the house, but it took me a long time to get stuff together for that. But here we are now. So, what I thought I’d do, is just give a little back story with how things came to be and we will share pictures of the progress.

So, until part two of the Story of the House, go check out the photo album entitled our new house over at the new photos page (there’s a permanent link on the sidebar, over there on the right). Note the photo titles and the captions which will tell you the story behind the pictures. Be amazed by how much progress they’ve made in the last two weeks. Most importantly, keep coming back. You can be sure that the photo album will be updated regularly until the day we move in, and then some.

Until next time…thanks for stopping by.
