The destruction began on Tuesday. They took off our porch cover and removed the side gate so that the heavy equipment could roll through the side yard into the back. They also disconnected our air conditioner that was over there.
The next day was fun for us all. While the constuction workers were removing the windows from the office and the boy's bedroom that faced into the backyard, the excavator began digging the new foundation.
Lindsey is looking out at the destruction. The ground was so muddy and soft! We have huge ruts everywhere now.
The foundation guys came by for a bit this week, but they will set up the forms for the concrete tomorrow.
After everything was dug up in the back, it was transported to the front and into a dump truck. He took away 6 loads, I think. There is still a huge pile in the back to fill in around the new foundation.
This week, they will finish moving the windows in the office and boy's room and repair the walls, set the forms for the foundation, fill them with concrete, and backfill the dirt. They may even get around to putting the new floor down! We'll see...

It is fun to have Cory and Jen close by in Hyde Park. Morgan loves Kyana. They live so close to Wes. We always walk to Wes's and pass by their house. It is super nice! Hope all is well with the PROJECT! It will be worth it when it is finished!
I'm glad it's you and not me!
