Since Tuesday

A lot has happened since Tuesday.  Of course, we're building a house!  We had a small drama when I hurt my knee pretty badly on Tuesday evening. 
But, I don't have the camera here right now, its at my in-laws' house.  So for now, I'll just give a brief discription of each day.
Wednesday- the molds for the first wall were removed, which means we have our first standing wall!  It is the wall in between Joern's garage and the house.  Hooray!  They tried to set-up some more molds for the other garage walls, but there was a problem with steel, I guess they didn't have enough, so there was a lot of waiting on Wednesday.
Thursday-  the preparation for the slab for the house was completed.  Insulation was laid above the stones, and then the thin layer was laid on top, the steel grids were put in place. 
Friday- the concrete slab for the house was poured!  Molds were finalized for the other two walls in Joern's garage, which will be poured on Monday. 

Hopefully, we'll get to my in-laws' house later today to pick up the camera.  I'll post pictures soon!
