We got Cement!




I guess it had to rain, we were trying to get cement in, it seems those 2 always come together for us! But it wasn't a horrible downpour or anything. We now have our basement done. Now we get our main floor put in and we start on the main floor blocks, and since we have a lot more windows, more windows equals more time.


Also we put in our weeping tile and wait for inspection then we back fill around the house.

Melanie,

Looking good. Very exciting. Just as an fyi - it is concrete that is poured. Cement is part of what makes concrete along with sand and water. That's what happens when you marry an engineer- you learn and then correct people!!
