Driveway Skirt

We needed a new step in front of our house.  One of the steps had sunk and last year at Halloween it was almost dangerous.  Kids kept tripping.

Luckily, we have an "in" in the concrete business.  And what started as a new step grew to a new step and a concrete driveway skirt.

 Esme got to help Uncle Ernie prepare.

 We had some extra concrete so the girls got to put their hand prints in a bit of it.

 And Aaron honed his creativity with a little help from Steve.  That's a cushion he's making.

Next year we will be doing a couple of things to the front of our house.  We will be finishing the rest of the driveway with concrete.  And we will be replacing the AW-FUL river rock on the front of our house with some stacked stone.  I'm so excited to see the finished product!
