Woody Progress…

So, Tommy came home early Thursday and we busted our butts till about 8 last night digging footers, making molds and pouring concrete. The weather is crappy today and we wanted to get the footers poured before it rained so they would have a good amount of time to cure. Tommy starts his vacation this Thursday so we’re gonna hit it hard before we head up to Moms house for Christmas. =) We’ve obviously got a crap ton still to do but it’s coming along at a good pace. We’re excited!! Stay tuned for the next phase! Hope everyone is well xoxo
