Making Memories...

Last night we were very excited to go out to our new home and allow the kids to each place their handprint on our brand-new back patio. Each of the kids left a print, and we then marked the year and their initials. It was a lot of fun, and helped make this process a bit more interesting for the kiddos. While progress on the house seems fast to Gavin and I lately, the kids seem to think things are moving awfully slow. The important thing is we have confirmation that we will be in our new home by CHRISTMAS!!!!

Brighton loved making her handprint. After she was finished here she proceeded to leave her mark in every puddle of dirt on the site.

And here goes my Maxer.

And finally Bella-Boo.

The finished project. They actually "framed" it for us so if we ever move (we are NEVER moving), we can take this memory with us.

Here is the house. We have a driveway up to the garages, and you can see where they are placing the frames for the front steps. The circular driveway will hopefully get poured today or tomorrow, as the weather is supposed to get a bit cooler later this week.

Here's a close-up of the front door as they are framing the walway and steps. Notice we have shingles? Hurray!
