New Parking and Sidewalk

We have been working toward putting in another parking pad next to the driveway and a sidewalk to the back apartment door. After a couple weeks of prep work, we were ready to pour.

At 6:00am the cement truck came and the real work began. Knowing it was too much for us to handle on our own, we hired some help and had one really awesome neighbor join the crew.

See how dark is was when the pour.



We were about two yards shy on the concrete and had to send the truck to go get more. That actually worked our good timing wise and then we had enough from the second load to finish the retaining wall form that we have been working on in the front yard.

We woke Sophie up to see the cement truck. We didn't want her to miss that. It also happened to be the same weekend that Grandma and Grandpa Olson and Uncle Scott were visiting.
