Backfill, Gravel, and Slab!!

Friday after a plumbing inspection we were able to move forward with the work. The excavator back filled and put the gravel down in preparation for the concrete slab to be poured. Saturday morning bright and early Matt met the concrete guys just before 6 am and they wasted no time getting to work. And by 10:30 am they had all the concrete poured and by 1:30 pm they were completely finished. Here are some pictures of the concrete pouring in action

 If you look closely I was taking a picture of Gracie and Hallie is totally posed in the background

 Then after the concrete had a couple hours to dry the concrete cutter came to cut the garage concrete to                                                                           help with cracking

 The lumber company also delivered most of our lumber Saturday so we will be ready to frame first thing Monday morning

I am so impressed with how smoothly this week has gone and can only hope the remainder of our project goes this well. We made a ton of progress this week. It really is coming together.
