Day 1 & 2 in the books!!!

 They started on our house yesterday!!!!  YEAH!!!  Day 1 they foundation was dug out and ready for footings.  I have no idea what I am talking about so if during this process you don't understand my terms...they are probably wrong- call Nate :)
 That is the most beautiful home I have ever seen...OH MY WORD!!!  I'm taking a ton of pictures of this process because the end result will look nothing like what we are starting with!!!  For those who don't know, the existing house will remain but we are adding an addition off the back.  We will then remodel the existing...in the end it will all be brand new!!!
 Jill, Shay and I went and checked out the progress last night.  We are on the inspection team...yeah right!
 Shay was inspecting the work done that day!
 This is the water pipe coming into the house from the well.  They had to dig down a specific amount for the foundation walls.  They were 2 inches from hitting this pipe and costing us money and time with having to reroute how water comes into the house!  Huge blessing this did not happen!!!
 This is Day 2.  The footings were poured today!!!
 The dry weather is working to our advantage for the crews to be able to come and work!
They will frame up and hopefully pour the foundation walls tomorrow.  It is fun to watch the process and see progress.  We built MANY houses growing up but I was too young to know what was going on and definitely not interested.
