I was concerned that my 3 year old (who is kind of obsessed by concrete trucks) was going to miss all the fun as he was peacefully asleep that morning, however, the work continued and he did get to see how a concrete truck worked.
We did not concrete the whole barn floor ($$$~!) but did do a small pad off the back of the barn and at the entryway. Also, something that I remember from my childhood is the memory stamp when you have your own concrete poured. So, true to fashion, we put our mark in ours as well. I don't know if we will live here forever but we have the memory of what the children's hands were like the year we put up this barn. Making memories...
