Building a house, and a family, one step at a time.
How can you create a home that’s more welcoming, more inviting, and more people will be blessed by entering? Well we’re not entirely sure, but here’s a sample of what we’re doing to try to create a Home for Hosting. On this site you’ll find how-to’s, stories, a build blog, and product and technique reviews on what we like, what we’d do differently, and what to avoid when building your own home.
(Oh yeah, we are still very much building this site and importing a ton of posts over from our previous home building blog which was pretty haphazard. BUT, we are already getting some pageviews despite not yet sharing it anywhere, so if you happen to stumble upon this site somehow, please check back later when we’ve got it all prim and proper!)

These two
They can scrap at times, but when these two get along, they really get along.
Bird’s eyes
The night before we had to return the Genie lift, I took Dana up to max height for a quick look at the house from a new vantage point.
Staying on track
The boys and I took a break from homebuilding (and before we sold our trusty backhoe) and built a pump track to race their bikes around on.
Cooped up
The chicken coop and run nears completion.
