Foundation Meeting Today

Here is a picture of our kitties... they really missed us this weekend while we were gone. The black one is Cauchy and the fat, grey one is "Baby" Blaisse Pascal. We stayed at a relaxing lake house in Michigan this weekend. We had a good time going out on the lake in the row boat and fishing. We caught more fish than we could count, but the number had to be more than 40. This is one of the biggest ones that Matt caught. It was great getting to see all of our relatives and celebrating birthdays! We didn't get to go through Canada to Niagra Falls because we didn't have our certified birth certificates to get across the border. Instead, we spent a day in downtown Detroit and toured the city from the "People Mover." It was a great trip, but as always its great to be home.
Back to the building of our house... They have cut out part of the curb on our lot. That is where the drive way will go. You can see it in the picture below.
They have also installed all of the underground plumbing. There are lots of deep holes right now. You can see that there is red "danger" tape all around our lot.
This is a closer picture of where the actual foundation will go. They wrote the address of our house on the frame!
We went to a short meeting tonight with the home builder. They had us watch a 20 minute video on the construction of the house and the foundation. They gave us a copy of it on DVD if anyone wants to watch it! At the meeting there were a lot of the people that will be our neighbors soon. Everyone seemed very nice... I'm so excited to move in and meet everyone!
