No new pictures (yet) but some exciting news... we passed our FINAL foundation inspection today! This means that we successfully completed an entire foundation -by hand- correctly. Very exciting. Only a couple small things left to do to finish it off - seal up the vents and put down a vapor barrier (looks like a big garbage bag). Craig has made a ton of other progress with the house since we moved in 3 weeks ago. All our pipes are insulated now, the new grounding rod is in place (so no more worrying about being electrocuted while I'm drying my hair) and the entire house is actually bolted down to the foundation. I'm sure this is the most stable this house has been in the past 50 years or so. I'll upload pictures soon. We leave tomorrow for Toledo for my cousin's wedding (congrats, Ellissa!) so we'll have some time away from the mansion. I haven't been to Toledo for 9 months so I'm actually pretty excited (in addition to just being excited to have carpet under my feet:)
