Week 3- block!

We have block walls! 

Last Thursday the block arrived and they started building the wall this week! 
Kyle is walking on what will be the side if the garage and mud room
The left side is the front of the garage and the porch on the far end

On Monday they started the wall...

The back of the garage in the forground and back of the house in the background. 
The porch.

Today they have the wall almost done!

I wouldn't want to walk across that! 

If you saw the little cut outs at the top- those will be where glass block will go to let light in the basement. 
What I was suprised about today was how much we are going to have to backfill for the final grade. Only 2 rows of blocks will be showing when the final grade is done! That's a lot of dirt! I guess we have a lot though! 
It rained on and off yesterday and today so I was very suprised they got so far! And the basement is not holding water at all! Great news! 
It is supposed to be nice the rest of the week. Maybe they will get the waterproofing done this week and start framing next week?? High hopes!0
