Ok, so I am failing miserably at this every day thing. In my defense we are very busy. I didn't get home from the board meeting until 10:30. We had two games a practice, piano lessons for everyone and a whole lot of house stuff. That was Wed. I don't really remember Tuesday so you will just have to believe me when I say I was busy.
Now for the house update. Things are going well. The foundation is finished. WOOO HOOO. Willy and Doug poured the stem walls today. They have been working all week to get the forms in place. They are very nice guys. Today was a beautiful day. After the pour Willy came and got Christian and I so he could show us the post and beam footings that will be exposed in the basement. There are four concrete plinths and he gave one to each of the boys and one for Chris and I to decorate. Around four in the afternoon we all went out and put hand prints and designed our piece. The boys had a ton of fun. I only had time to take pics of Max's but I will add the rest (promises promises).
Tomorrow Jackie comes back to begin framing the walls. Chris says it the beginning of phase 3. We are unclear on how many phases there are but somehow saying it feels like progress.
Christian had a baseball game tonight which went not so good. Jonah had practice. We got home around 8pm and decided on an impromtu family basketball game. Chris and I against the kids. Chris and I won. Yeah it is true. I have mad basketball skills. I got the hops. (stop laughing).
We have a full weekend planned. Chris got us tickets to tomorrows Mariners game. Felix is pitching. Opening Day for Little League is this weekend. Kim and Payton (sister in law and niece) are coming for the night Saturday. Tristan's birthday is Sunday. Never a dull moment around here.
As always, I will keep up with the pics and progress just not as promptly as I originally promised.
