Roofing!

The kids watching the roofers from the attic window.

Working on grandpa and grandma's house. They hand nailed the whole thing!


Taylor was a great help to them all day and really enjoyed watching and learning about roofing.

After the roofing was finished Benjamin volunteered to vacuum the mud and water from the stairs and floor. That was a big job!

The back is done!

So is the front!!!! Yeah! Now the floors will get dry! No more dodging drips in our bedrooms and kitchen. No more tip-toeing through the puddles in the family room and dining room for fear of getting soaked! It's going to be more like home now...soon..!

Many blessings to your day!
