How the yard looked on Saturday - a bunch of trenches to replace the water

and sewer lines into the house. (This is picture is taken from the back door)

On Monday - 3 loads of gravel were brought in to fill up the old septic tank

(you can see the kids in the back on the dirt hills - a new favorite past-time!)

On Tuesday - The caution tape through Sandy's yard(our neighbor)

and the hole in the back is just about finished!

The mounds of dirt in the back - I was amazed at how much dirt

came out of the hole...kind of crazy.

And today - Ryan got the footings just about ready to go -

I think he is going to try to pour them this weekend.


We are making progress!!!
