Clean-up (among other things)

Well, the roof was on, the a/c guys and plumbers were there, and Mom and Dad gathered up their crew (us kids) to clean up around the outside of the house. There were scrap piles, plastic piles, shingle pieces, and various other types of trash scattered around the building site, so we got a fire going and went to work.


We're thinking about renaming our farm to 'Toad Hall'. We found five toads, one purple and four black, in scrap piles.


See what happens when we let him have matches?


The smoke from the trash fire looked really pretty when the sun came through the trees just right

Hannah had to roll up all the nail strips we found...

That is, when she was working.


Straight ahead, the in-progress clearing for electricity, etc

We have a roof! Yay!

The front of the house, slightly more finished this time!

Inside the house...

Looking up the staircase...

And Josh. Need we say more?

"When are you guys gonna be done? I'm bored. I'm hungry. This cardboard smells weird!"

Well, that's it for this post! TTFN!
