Are you ready for some Foot(ball)ers!

Everybody has been worried about the potential NFL lockout and whether or not we're going to have a football seasons this year.  We have been more worried about when we were going to get our foot-ers formed and poured up in the mountains.  Good news, Greg has made huge progress since we got the permit last Friday and we now have a lot that has been cleared of (gulp) many trees and we have the excavation complete for our footers.  The forms are almost 100% in place and the concrete should be poured tomorrow.  Below is a picture of the hole with a form in it.



To get a sense for the scale of this, here's another picture that shows the twins standing in the front part of the lot.  This is taken with the girls standing next to the concrete piers for the deck and looking towards the front of the lot.



We have a lot of wood to use for firewood after the house is built.  Looks like we'll have to find a friend with a chainsaw who likes to chop and split wood :
