More Concrete

I know. I know. You are getting tired of all this excitement over at our building site. I mean who wouldn't just be glued to this screen. Concrete, concrete and more concrete!

Friday afternoon they did some more pouring. They had laid out the forms for the driveway, patio and walkways. It is fun to see it all come together.

Here they are working on the driveway.


A view from the house of the driveway going down to the street. We are amazed how much driveway it is!


This is looking sideways across the back of our lot. Right in front here is the part of the driveway that will be under the porte cushier. After that is a rectangle of green space. On the other side of that there will be a low fence with a gate over close to the house. The bigger rectangle after that is our patio that we extended to more than the standard 10 x 10. It is so much cheaper to do it now versus later.

Well I, for one, am always so excited to see new house posts on this blog! How exciting. It's really coming along! I can't wait to someday see it all in person. :)

We've taken this week off from school because the children, for some reason, REALLY wanted their bunk beds put back together in the same room again. So, that's what we've been working on. And now Kristen has her very own nursery...the big girls' old room. It's very pretty...Darren and I can't believe it's taken us four babies to finally have a nursery. They've always shared our room until they were old enough to move in with a bigger sibling! :)

Sorry for the long comment. Maybe I should have just e-mailed? Anyway, I miss you. I think of you often. Much love to you, friend. Hope you're all doing well!
