It has begun!!

While I was in MN, our excavators began digging out our house...and here are pictures of them pouring the cement for our footings. We've spotted a few kids on the lot biking and playing army, so Michael put up a no trespassing sign...it's a friendly one :) we haven't seen any more kids there lately, especially since all the rebar has gone in and etc. Hopefully our foundation will be poured soon and then it will on to the basement slab. The foundation walls look crazy tall right now, but I was able to figure out some "3D" renditions of our home, and hopefully it will look just right when it's all finished!
