Well, today started off exciting! The kids and I were out at the shed by 7:30 waiting on the excavators. Mom met us out there along with Kathy & Grandma to help pass the time. The Siewerts arrived around 7:45 and got right to digging. There were a few bumps along the way with depths and finding "virgin ground". But it's done. It's dug. And it looks huge!! Here's a picture of Joe starting the dig.
Little Cody just couldn't stand it. He ended up getting out his own John Deere toys and digging a few basements by the shed. He can't wait to get out there later tonight and play in the dirt. It drove him crazy that I wouldn't let him play in the piles while the track hoe was working.
Project is almost completed. Just one more corner and two wing walls to go!!!
D-O-N-E!!! Mom & the kids decided to go run around in the basement while I took a few last minute pictures. Hanah & Halie were both able to stand in thier rooms and visualize where everything was going to be. We lucked out with the garage and didn't end up having to dig it out. We will just have to backfill it instead. I'll post more next week after we pour basement walls.
