Big Green under construction

Some of you know that we had a foundation issue that we noticed after we moved in.  
Well, we thought we would fix the problem.
It is quite crazy!!!!
They said they would only have to dig from underneath and they probably would not have to come in the house (only the worse case---Well we have it)!!!
After digging a couple of hours they figured they would have to come into the house and get rid of all the concrete.  
   

 Right before they started taking up the floor, sub-floor and whatever else is down there.
 After day 2 inside (or maybe 3)
Look at the huge crack.  And why would they leave a spot where there was no concrete!!!

What it looked like before.  
I loved all the flower pots with the brick.
Well, they are all gone and we have mud everywhere.
 After day 2 of digging.
Since they started this project it has rained and rained and rained (I think it has rained a good 7")



Day 4
They made a ditch going from our house to the driveway!!!!  It was really deep and they had huge pipes!!!

Day 5 (of digging, jack-hammering and so forth)
They have gotten out all the concrete and thank goodness, it is a sunny day and they are able to dig out the family room!!!
Their digger is really cool!!!
Tomorrow, since it is Saturday, we all are going to get chairs and watch them dig all day long!!!
