Extreme Makeover, Home Edition: Day 2, Feb 18

My parents stayed over with us last night to help keep Benton calm today while Kevin and I were both at work.  They left this afternoon with Benton, and they won't come back until it's almost done here.  I miss Benton already. :(  Needless to say, it is noisy.  We are also starting to notice yard damage from the big semi trucks.  Thankfully, the builders and show managers have been very proactive and talk to us as soon as something happens to discuss how to fix damage.

They are still working on the foundation.  I will get closer pictures once there is more to see.  Tomorrow they are expecting thousands of people on shuttles for the visitor day.  You will see the people rails in one of the photos.  We are still very excited for the family!

Still digging and pouring concrete.  They are also using precast concrete.  My husband is in structural engineering heaven.

At the far back is the famous "move that bus" bus.


Big equipment

The catering truck right in front of our front yard.  We are able to eat anytime at the catering tent and truck.  We haven't yet, but we might try it soon.  In the back you can see the people rails and one of the many very bright stadium lights.  There is also a VIP tent that we have access to.  Again, we haven't gone over yet.

Tow zone signs in our front yard and our security team.
Stay tuned! Framing begins tonight/early tomorrow!
