Exciting day on site today...

 ...as the foundation base was laid. We decided to make a little "time capsule" and leave it in the foundation, here Mr B. placing it on the threshold. 11am first load of cement arrived and two hours later 20 m3 had been poured into the foundation. We went back on site later with the kids to write down our names on the nearly too hard cement. Tomorrow will be very busy day as all the timber from around the foundation will have to be pulled out, big load of styrofoam will arrive (at 7am), concrete blocks will have to be moved around, and digger man will reappear to fill out the base with sand. 

Mrs B. is kept busy as well, meeting with a kitchen company tomorrow morning to discuss kitchen, utility room, porch and bathroom furnishing and just received the electrical plans for the house so need to take some time to go through  them. Also getting quotes for windows and doors and will soon need to pick one. And the bills are flying in...
