Cement Pad!

May 21st-22nd!!!

The concrete guys have arrived! They tore out the old cement that had the scary metal strip that people used to scrape their boots off with. I was so afraid that one of my kids would trip and fall on it! They also graded the earth so it would slope away from the house. Our old cement sloped inwards and the water would gather by the house.
After that they added wire mesh and the next day the concrete was poured!!! It was fascinating to watch how they smoothed out the cement and added edging and a seam down the middle!
The back yard is sure coming together. We can't wait for the next step!
