we're getting there!

The layout inspections are done. The forms and plumbing rough, and regrading (cutting in the beams before the foundation pour) are done. And I believe the copper and cables were laid yesterday. Today is another inspection by the city and engineer and then they'll pour the foundation tomorrow!!! I missed one picture, it is on Andrew's phone, of the electrical wiring and plumbing going in.

pre-foundation

Today they were laying sand... next comes electrical wiring and plumbing and then we'll have a foundation to actually build on!

We clapped for joy today when we drove up and found evidence of work being done!

just a lot

Work on the foundation should begin this Thursday. So we thought we'd get a picture of the kids standing on the empty lot. Very exciting!
