Construction Begins!

The Sutton Casa construction has begun! We're going to use this blog to keep all of you updated on the exciting progress of the house...and all of the other fun stuff going on. We're hoping to have the majority of the house finished by April, when we come home to Georgia for the wedding.

The house will be located on the back corner of the new Amigos land....the view from our backyard is the picture at the top of this webpage. We are lucky to know and work with construction experts, and Amigos is not loaded down with construction projects for the next few months...so we're hiring a few of our fellow employees to build the house and Jeremy is supervising with the little time he has away from the farm. Yesterday, the guys staked out the fence and built the champa, which is where our caretaker will sleep and guard the supplies. So, if all else fails, we'll always have this champa to call home :)

Its going to be an interesting and busy few months. Jeremy is out at the Amigos Farm every day...they are getting ready to plant lots of veggies. I'm here in the local office helping to manage projects, as well as our non-stop mission groups...and then on the side try to do some wedding planning (we're lucky to have 2 very involved moms helping us!)

We'll keep you updated on the progress of the house...and our lives...so check back in!

Love,

Kristin and Jeremy
