That's what my new porches would ask you if they could talk. Yes, they would. Ummm, okay perhaps my imagination is running a bit wild. And, no I haven't had much sleep. But c'mon bear with me- it's VBS week.
They look dirty but that's actually the release agent they put down before they stamp. It will be power washed off and leave a two toned effect. You can see in the picture below the way the front porch simply has a gentle slope up rather than a step. With the stamping (I told you it was a good idea!) you can't even really tell that it slopes. There will be a sidewalk that butts up to the front porch but they don't pour that or the driveway until the end of the process so that all the construction doesn't tear it up. Whether or not the sidewalk will be stamped has yet to be determined.
Without further ado, I give you my pretty, pretty porches-

And finally, here's picture of the whole slab. They will start framing today, hopefully. Actually, the wood is being delivered right now, as I type. Exciting stuff.
Now, I gotta go get ready for "Game Day". I bought 12 packages of candy bars last night as a bribe, there are 25 3rd graders in my class.
