The Permit!!!!

Finally.  After 3 LONG weeks (ok ok, I know it takes people so much longer than 3 weeks but it felt like an eternity to us) we have our permit for construction on the house!!!  We are supposed to be starting right around May 1st with the laying of the foundation.  It's getting closer!!!

Folsom Zoo Field Trip

Siena's preschool had a little field trip to the Folsom Zoo. It was so fun to spend the morning with peanut. She had a little check list of animals she had to find at the zoo. We took a train ride around the park before heading home.

The waiting game

Well it's been two weeks to the day since Mike turned in the plans to the county.  We heard back today from Plan Check and there is a list of about 15 nit picky things the need before passing the plans.  It's ridiculous but we are sure it's just another way for this out sourcing company to get more $ from the county.  We are about 11 out from the deadline of when the fees increase and we are looking at a possible extra $1,000 in fees to the school districts with this increase.  We are not happy one bit.  We planned and planned and some one who shall remain nameless took their time and because of that it may cost us a lot more $.  Fingers crossed we can get all these changes taken care of so Monday morning Mike can get these plans back to the plan check.

Bulls - Farm League Game 1

First baseball game of the year!  Cole loves baseball so much.  He's pretty darn good for a kindergartener too!  He is one of two (maybe 3) kindergarteners on the team this year with the rest of the boys ranging from 1st to 3rd grade.  He is always willing and ready to play and can't wait for coach to tell him where to go in the field.
