Day 10 - Footings are in!

I never thought I'd be so excited about a pile of bricks, but I saw this today and was overcome with excitement! The footings are in and builders have started the retaining walls for the slab. This will form the carport and on the right of the photo will be the portico.

The footings for the rest of the house have been laid out as well and I'm a little surprised at how big the house really is. It's by far the largest house we've ever lived in.

So that's the latest, it's not much...but it's a start that's been a loooong time coming.
