Under Construction

Not truly a "before" picture, but this was very early in the demolition phase.

Ready for concrete.




The very cool cement pump truck!

Little boy hand prints! I love them!

For many days I had pondered placing something in the cement footings. But the concrete truck arrived before I arrived at the perfect idea.

What about you? What would you place in the literal foundation of your house if you had the chance?

Well, if I had lots of room and the concrete wasn't drying too fast.... I would like to write ALL the lyrics to, "My Hope is Built on Nothing Less." But, if that didn't work out, I would proabably have to just go with, "Psalm 18:2." That would remind me in whose house I dwell.
I must say I do love the legacy of the handprints. -kmc

We saw this Rainbow Checkerboard Cake video several months ago and Calvin was intrigued.  He ended up adding it to our Summer Fun Ideas List and this week we made it happen.  This was not quite a Pinterest Fail, but if you look at the video you will see how far from the original creation our cake actually was.    One cake mix was divided into pink and yellow.  One cake mix we made into blue and green.     Lots of boys.  Lots of help.  Lots of hand washing.    We cut the center out of each one and rearranged the colors.    And stacked them all together.  If we had waited until the cakes were completely cool, or even par-froze the layers they would have stacked more easily without cracking.

I am an inexperienced blogger. I write sporadically. I use a free blogging web-site.  I have not done a tutorial. I have not attended a blogger conference.  And I have had at least three reader's comments "lost" recently.  I am so sorry about that!! I do not know why this is happening.  I have double checked all my setting to allow comments. Even anonymous comments but the problem seems to persist.   Today I have made a small change so that the comments section will pop-up in a new window instead of at the bottom of my site.  Maybe this will help.   If you make a comment and it doesn't appear, please let me know.   Or just forgo all the blog-related-comment-mumbo-jumbo and email me directly!   I like hearing from you.
