This is how we spent the 4th of July weekend...

Building our front entry

My sister Meaghan put in a couple hours - sanding windows!

Thanks, Meg!

Here's Payton laying in the sand that was left after we poured the gypcrete

David, Grandpa Bill, Stacey, and Brad lifting the truss for the front entry....

it's made with 8"x 8" posts.

Here they are using Grandpa's pully system to lift the truss...

Payton and David went to the farm last week to get some old grainery wood to use for our front entry.... Papa Ed was showing Payton how to eat wheat...

The coloring is a little weird in these photos....setting sun....

These are the graineries where we got our wood. They are located on the McKeever farm. David's grandpa used to use them.
