We've been floored

This week was exciting because they laid the cement slab, and now we have the look of a real house.

John DeForest, our wonderful architect, suggested that we place an old coin in the slab for good luck, so we placed an old lucky penny right in the front of the garage. Paul's mom, Delphie, used to save the old pennies that are called "wheat pennies" - they have wheat sheafs instead of the Lincoln Memorial on the back side. We also couldn't resist putting our initials in the cement, too.
