So, we got a couple bids back on the house I have my heart set on building and they came back a bit too high. In about five years we'll be able to more comfortably and responsibly afford it. We could adjust and build something more affordable but this is the house that I plan on being in forever and I don't want to waste our lot on something I don't love. In the mean time we've decided to buy and it's a bit of an emotional roller coaster. It's been tricky to not get my heart set on things that for one reason or another aren't the best place to move our family...but we found a darling little 4-bedroom house Darling Street in Ogden. It's a great street in a great neighborhood and I'm really hoping it all works out!! I'll keep you posted. It's directly across the street from Grandma Betty (Uncle Bruce's mother).
