Miss Mom
Milly learning how to make cookies. She did it all by herself and no one complained of any egg shells!
A story worthy of its own soundtrack
Throughout the entire sell and build process we were dealing with the alternate storyline of some piano drama. It was a great day when the new (to us) piano was brought in and Dana and the kids could get back to praising, playing and practicing in our new living room.
Bo knows
Baby Bo explains the work that went into the balcony rails and posts. Some of the door trim, lighting, and timber framing in the living room can also be seen.
Welcome!
Dana uses gel stain on the main entrance to finish things up.
Mr. Speaker
Adding the in-ceiling speakers. One in the kitchen, one in dining room, two in the wood soffit on the back deck, and two in the cathedral part of the living room.
Above the fog
Finn looks down off the finished back deck on a foggy morning. Copper post caps by sheetmetalcaps.com (highly recommended!)
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.
