Hangin' out in the 'Hood

The kids and I were taking a walk around the neighborhood just to get out of the house when we happened upon an Austin city crew working on the sidewalk in front of Emily and PT's house. Score! The men were so nice and talked us through putting our hands and names in the wet cement. They even gave us supplies for the project! When John messed his up they got their trowel out and re-smoothed the wet concrete so we could do it again. So nice. The kids were fascinated with the whole process (and I was, too.) A lingering question I had was why did 6 men need to be there for that job? Ahhh. . . our tax dollars at work. No complaints from me. . . did I mention they were nice?

Pouring the concrete


Waiting for it to dry. . . 

Still waiting. . . 

Just a few minutes more!

AFTER! I just love it. Everytime we walk by them my heart will smile
