I need to update more!

I have not been very good at updating house pictures lately. I need to do better!

Aj laying block for the porch

Putting outside walls up

Starting roof trusses

Front view of the house. The right is the garage with a side entry. Now all of the sheeting is up. Next is to finish the garage roof trusses. Then we put sheeting on the roof and shingle. It will be good to get this house enclosed soon! Our windows are here so those will be put in after the roof is all done.

Side view of garage

Other side of house. Those are the two bedrooms in the basement.

Back of the house. On the left bottom there is a side walkout.

A Laugh Much Needed

I was working with a few of my kids on some sight words. The word we were working on was "it". I had my flip letters out that spelled "it". One of my first graders who loves to grab things went and grabbed more letters. He happened to grab the flip card with "sh" on it. He then connected the flip cards together. I thought ha, how nice. Then he said with full excitement in his voice.... "CAR WASH." "It says CAR WASH!!!" My associate and I looked at each other and then the laughter came out :) I love his innocence. Moments like that make me love my job:)

Moving Up

Things are taking shape now and really looking like a house to me!
Here are a bunch of pictures of the basement process.
Today I got to walk on the main level floor, man that felt good (despite the rain!)

New Toys

Here are our new 3 wheelers! AJ bought them so we could hook up our little trailer we have to the back of one then bring tools back and forth from the house to the building.

Riding with Amy ..very slow:)
