I haven't blogged at all about the house we are renting in Linn, but it is a new construction. So, some things were not all the way finished when we moved in and some still aren't. For example we haven't had a sidewalk or step up to our front door until today. It finally stopped raining long enough for the men to come and pour the concrete, and you can imagine how happy that made me!
We had a front row seat from our windows of the action, and Paige just loved watching. I actually opened up the window so that she could hear everything, too. She was enthralled the entire time. I took a pic when they were pouring the concrete off the truck...it was even interesting to me. It is a lot chunkier than I would have imagined it to be, since it always looks so smooth by the time the workers get finished with it.
When they were done with the step, we went outside and had Paige put her hand print in it. The workers talked me into doing it. I was afraid that my landlord would be upset, but they kept telling me that I should do it and to blame it on them. So, we did it...I hope my landlord doesn't care too much. However, there is nothing I can do about it now! Plus, it does look neat...and we can come back to see it for years to come. I think Paige will like that!
It was kind of hard to get her to relax her hand. We actually had to do it twice because she just grabbed at the concrete the first time. She also did not like the feel of it on her hands afterward!
