Breaking Ground

The day finally arrived!!  


We have started construction for my parent's home in my backyard!

These pictures don't show a lot, but I wanted to document the process.

Here is a pic of one of the first days of construction.

Here is where we are as of Saturday. The concrete is being poured tomorrow and we should start seeing framing next week!

The foundation seems SO tall to me, but I know it will all look great in the end. Harper actually let me take a picture of him!

All of the construction and workers have my anxiety levels up a little bit. I don't mind them at all, but they had to dig up a bit of the front yard to connect plumbing and now there are dirt piles everywhere. It's really alright because we need to do a lot of landscaping this Spring anyway. There is just a lot going on. I have all but stopped coming home for lunch because I always get blocked in! Just last week, I counted 11 cars/trucks at my house.



Things are going to get a lot busier because we hope to start getting the brick painted on our house in the next few weeks!

This place should look brand new by Summer. It's been a long time coming :)

Happy Tuesday!
