The forms are all complete, the driveway is done, and the concrete for the footers have been poured. The foundation walls (and all the exterior walls for that matter) will end up sitting on the footers and the concrete slab will be poured up to them. There's actually a bit more involved in a footer than this indicates (i.e., beyond the concrete and wood, there's a vapor barrier, mesh, gravel, and rebar for reinforcement).
Low level view of footers. On the main level, looking from back to front on the left side, bedroom4, dining room foyer, great room.
Low level view of the footers at the front of the house. Eventually, the main entrance will be about 2.5 feet off the ground.
Detail of the garage footer. 
Stones for the temporary driveway is now spread out (making it functional) with excess concrete on the stones.
Front left of footers (bedroom 4 on main + garage).
Footers at the entrance looking back to the garage. 
Wilbert (who Preethi used to report to), the dogs, and Preethi (somewhat hidden by Wilbert) look at the footers. We bring people out to the lot... a lot. In fact, we like showing the lot so much, we made a blog!
At the garage looking down the slope at the back of the house. We're walking down to the stream to show Wilbert the rest of the lot.
Dirt pile looking down the farm road. You can kinda see the acre or so clearing through the trees in the top left of the photo.
