I have been following the construction of your house. I wanted to buy a lot up there in that development but it was out of my budget. Looks like you have amazing views. I'm a contractor in So Cal by trade, and like that method of constructon you used(foam block and concrete). The other development near the fire station in Springdale used the same method, with very thick stone veneer.I drew up some preliminary plans for fun,and put a hot tub on the roof,to take advantage of the view, but it was just wishful thinking! Good luck on your project. I am going up to Zion in Feb. and look forward to seeing your project.
