Concrete & Lumber.

What an awesome week! We made so much progress! It is starting to look like a house! We started the week with inspections... thankfully all went well! We poured our concrete slab for the garage on Tuesday. Although Wednesday was a rough day, we are so thankful for the true miracles that God showed us... and through trust and faith, the concrete slab was poured for the house! We were able to be there as the concrete was drying... and of course, we had to write in it! In one corner, we inscribed "1 Corinthians 3:1" which is the verse we have focused on in our blog. And we also put our favorite saying,"Live to Love. Love to Live." We pray this is how we live out our lives.

Thursday morning, the lumber was delivered and by Thursday afternoon, the first floor walls were up and framed! This is when things became so real to me (Lindsey). Very excited to see all that is to come.

And as for Friday.. again, we had a few mishaps but thankful that everything worked out and also thankful that my parents were here for some great advice! They worked on framing the doors and windows for the first floor. It is looking so good! Check out pics below.

Trucks lined up to pour!
