LONG TIME, NO POST

I know, I know.....I have completely fallen down on my job. I have had a slab poured for over a week now and no pictures. I have several excuses for my lapse, but I won't bore you with that, let's get to the good stuff.
First, Brody Parker Eaves should be making his appearance in the world today. For those of you who don't know Matt (Eaves) is one of "my kids". I started babysitting Matt when he was only a few weeks old. Which just seems like yesterday, by the way. And today he will become a Daddy. Matt's wife Sarah went into the hospital last night and they were scheduled to induce at 6 am this morning. I can't wait to hold that baby, just the way I did his Daddy. Ok, enough or I'm gonna start crying.
Secondly, I do have a slab, but things have been pretty much at a stand still since then. You know the typical house building stuff, hurry up and wait. I did have a wonderful time last Friday afternoon looking at brick. Granted it didn't start out wonderful, I was completely overwhelmed and just wanted to use inny, minny, miney, mo as my selection process. But thanks to Debbie, Carey, John James and Stephanie I hung in there and made some headway. I have it narrowed down to 3 different brick/mortar combinations. I got siding samples last night so I hope to be able to take those and finalize the brick/siding decision.
Anyhoo, here are the pictures.
