FRIENDS & FAMILY

With the help of a few friends and family, Chris has been able to this show on a roll. Erik lent a helping hand getting the decking down for the first floor.

Not to be out done Todd got the framing off to a good start with the building of the first wall. The start of the framing was exciting to see the walls take form, but also to put things into perspective again. It is hard to believe just a few months ago we were cramming six people into that house.

The first floor walls came together when Justin and Doug (Justin's brother-in-law) came down and rescued me from lifting walls up. Not that I wasn't going to give it a shot, but Chris was a lot safer with Justin and Doug's help. The final pieces were lifted into place and the debate of the second floor was in full gear, and the project was grounded to a halt.

Looking at four walls now is really neat and getting ready for the second floor, no matter how it is, is nice to see. The overall experience for this phase of the project....hmmmm....I will leave it up to Chris to speculate on that one.
Oh I almost forgot our fifth kid...Ben-O...always finding his way into our projects and giving us a helping hand when needed. Thanks Ben.
