Quote of the Day

“I don’t like homework. It’s nauseating.”

Ready for Shingles

The framers finished the roof today and the shingle guys are coming tomorrow morning! Yipeeeee!

Almost Done!

The roof framers are almost done! They should finish tomorrow and, depending on how early they finish, the shingle guys might even start tomorrow! We’re praying the roof is completely done before the rain (and possibly worse) starts next week.

Roofing Takes a REALLY Long Time!

But things are moving along. Hopefully the storm that is headed our way won’t set us back any (i.e. tear our semi-finished roof off). Tom and his parents have been at the site all day bracing the porches and cleaning up scrap wood and other stuff that could potentially become flying debris. No matter what, though, we have a lot of rain coming this way...hopefully the crew will be able to start working again Tuesday or Wednesday.

Roofing Takes a Long Time!

We’ve had some weather delays, but progress is steadily being made. The roofers still have a few more days of work ahead of them before we can call the shingle guy to finish things up.





Quote of the Day

While reading an I-Spy type of book to Jessalyn this evening, we were trying to find different things on each page. I asked her to find a specific object and her reply, after a few contemplative moments was, “I would like to tell you that I can find it but, alas, I can not.”
