Yesterday some of the cement was poured at our house and I made sure we got over in time to put hand prints in it! Heidi was the only child when we built our last home and I wanted to put her hand prints in, but the builder wasn't as accommodating. Our builder called us early Friday morning and told us they were ready. It was perfect because Jeff had taken the day off to spend time with his sister and her family. Caimbree was by the most difficult to convince. She absolutely did NOT want her hands in or near anything as messy as wet cement!! It took us about four tries until we finally gave up and left it as a messy mush haha! Every time we put her hand in, she would try to grab a handful of the cement and mess up the print. Jeff and I both were trying to restrain her just to get her to stand near the cement. I'm sure we will laugh every time we see her little messy hand print!
Savanna and Heidi were a little hesitant at first, but they were so excited about their hands being in the cement forever that they eventually cooperated and they were so excited after they did it that they wanted to keep doing it! Now they have to check their hand prints every time we go to the house. I'm so glad we were able to leave their mark this time! It was so fun and I know it is going to be so special as the years fly by.
