Foundations

Big moment....the foundations are dug and filled. Tony had to be away for work, so I was set with the task of taking lots of photos and movies because he was 'missing the birth of his child....!' (A dam sight less painful and more enjoyable for me this time though!!)
Setting out - A thin graffiti line depicts where our house will stand. We can stand in the kitchen now!

Will measuring the depth of our foundations

Surveying the situation!
The cement lorry fills the bucket and then the digger drives over the playroom to fill the trench - simple!

                                                                                                                                       
            Freddy the school bear checks it out too! 

                                   
                                             


Small child is dangled over the trench to squish both hands in the cement with her name.

And then.....oh alright then....I'm only doing it to show the children it's ok! Ouch will my legs ever bring me to safety.....Thank goodness for yoga!

Well....it's gotta be done huh?!

                           
 'the boss' overseas it, but isn't convinced....
Mummy, Mummy can I go in Barry's digger?!

Its ok.....the experts have arrived......

'no, no, no, it should be built like this.....'

Look what we found whilst digging!

  1. Sorry, but what DID you find while digging. I can't work out what it is - or maybe is that the whole point?
