I haven’t been too faithful at putting up a picture every day!  But I’ll still spatter them throughout the blog for your enjoyment!

Well, isn’t that entertaining?  Here’s a picture of our house - yesterday!  DH is taking the roof off to expand it - we’re putting on a second floor!  Woohoo!  Praise the Lord!  We have 3 children in 600 square feet, and that 600 square feet is unfinished.  Hopefully after our second floor goes on we’ll be able to get all those frivolous extras finished - kitchen cupboards, running water, closets, bathroom walls - all of that fun stuff ;).

Now, normally we DO have straw on the outside of our house - because it isn’t plastered yet, and the insulation is straw-bale/light straw clay.  But the exciting part is that DH is ripping off the roof and rebuilding the side wall.  Normally those boards that are down on the ground would be up on the side, covering up the insulation.  Neat hey?  Always something adventerous going on at the ol’ homestead!
