Lots of Form Work!






Leryl is standing where the pad for his shooting bench will be. I think he was more excited about the pour for the footings for the bench than he was for the footings for the house! The next three pictures show the forms for the walls of the foundation. Gary & Jamie are hard workers. Gary was grumbling about the bay windows.....so I made chocolate chip cookies to pacify him. The crew liked that! The last picture is Ladybug with her new friend, Seamus. They're after a chipmunk! We're hoping to pour the walls Friday. Just so glad that something is going on!!!

We're waiting for the concrete truck to pour the footings

It's Happening!

We're not sure how this is going to work but we thought we'd give it a try. We decided to try "blogging" our adventure instead of sending emails to everyone. If you're interested in our progress, you can check our blog whenever and those not interested won't be bothered by emails.

I (Vicki) am working on this at 12:15 AM as I couldn't sleep. The forms for the footings were completed yesterday (Thursday) and the concrete will be poured today (Friday). We're going to try to post pictures on this site but we haven't figured that out.

So.....we're off and rolling and it feels SO good!!! Stay tuned! The fun has just begun!
