The house is coming along, and we couldn't have gotten this far without the help of some amazing friends & family during the first two Saturdays in October. On October 3rd we installed bales and on October 10th we worked on stuffing air spaces with straw and straightening the walls.
We have two weekends left to complete all the bale work, and prep for the stucco scheduled for October 26th. Anyone else available to help? Look how much fun you can be having... plus we feed you!

Izzy and Lynn are now lean mean operators of power tools!

Will's twin sister Andrea tackles the wall in the storage room.

Lynn & Izzy play in the straw.

Will & Hayward develop a system to stuff the gap on top of the wall. Hayward, Elisha and their two little girls came all the way from near Ottawa to help out. Thanks so much guys!
Izzy's wall of perfection.

Lynn's brother Larry, and his better half Sherri, measure bales for the master bedroom.

Larry never misses an opportunity to torment his sister.
Lynn loves him anyway!

Izzy and George are a great team.

...so are Andrea & Tibiriu.

Wishe - that's one wicked swing! You took on a crazy project.
Thanks for sticking with it!
