The Beginning 

Hello All!!

We have decided to make a blog on our new adventure of building our new home.   I can't tell you how excited we are to finally start this adventure!   We got word tonight that the plan is to dig the 'hole' next week and pour the foundation.  L & L Home Builders, from Marcus Iowa, are our General Contractors.  Our home will be an AmWood, which is a panelized home.  I'm excited to learn the method of this build and share our experience.   So far L & L has been amazing and wonderful to work with in this building process.

How we got here....well here's the short of it.
0. We looked at multiple homes, acreages...we were either to slow, weren't good fits, or spooked Kathy out!
1. Let's do an addition....contractor actually wondered why we weren't building... nope
2. Ida Grove manufactured homes are Nice... found one we liked....a lot....
3. Kathy randomly filled out a form online with AmWood Homes..enter L&L Home Builders, Loren called and said to give them a chance at quoting a home...they caught our eye.
4. Lowell found Nordaas Home as the Spencer Fair...looked into it, extremely nice homes, & wasn't quite our fit.  But opened our eyes to new floor plans.  Thanks Slick Hicks!
5. L & L continued to work with us on finding the right floor plan for our family.
6. December 2016 we committed to L & L for a Spring Build!!!!  On a snowy night we began the process of picking out things for our home.


So that's how we got here!  Multiple emails, changes to plans, & hours looking at Build.com...I think we are ready!!!
