Remember that crazy home decorating rampage I'm on? Well, it continues :) We have been working on making our yard and outside more kid friendly. My mom suggested that my dad could help pour a concrete pad around the back of our house. Then, our kids can ride bikes and write with chalk, etc. out back!
We talked about the possibility of doing this, but we don't have the money right now. We considered saving and doing it sometime this summer...maybe using some of our extra paycheck in May to pay for it.
We would need A LOT of concrete! A bag of concrete is about $4.00 each.
I was putting together my grocery list, and I got the feeling that, again, I should go to Home Depot.com. Part of their Summer Black Friday Sale included backs of Sakrete for $1.99 each--that's half the price!! We figured it out, and it would only cost us about $45 to do the whole thing...compared to the near $100 it would have taken previously!
Again, I frantically texted Scott at work, and I called my dad to see if he really thought we could do this! I got the "okay"!
Obviously, Heavenly Father knows what I love and what makes me happy. He knows what my hobbies are, and he cares! This week, he knew how obsessed I would be with all these home renovations, this is how he showed his love.
