February/March 2012

February into March...Winter into Spring

The stove is still the only thing keeping us warm...we went through about 1.5 cords of wood this winter.

Justin borrowed the neighbors fancy shovel when we didn't get plowed (still not sure why the plow-guy didn't come).  Anyway, Justin loved it so much he did the full driveway!

Odd March weather!

Winter Barn

Warm house in the winter.

Justin worked long and hard to add to the framing of the ceiling in the bathroom to make sure it was level and that we had something to drill into when putting up the drywall.

Ceiling framing from inside of the shower.  That thing has GOT to go!

Chester in a box.  He has such a rough life.

Could this be our new toilet?

Justin finished the wall framing and added wiring for the lights and plugs in the bathroom.

Wiring for an overhead light--something this bathroom didn't have!

Wired bathroom wall...ready for drywall!

Justin is careful with every detail.  These will become the switches...nicely labeled, of course.

Sink layout.

This is called a deadman and is a helpful tool when you have two people putting up drywall on the ceiling!

First piece up in the bathroom--just the two of us got this up!

Short break from drywall--building a birdhouse. 

Now that's a birdhouse.

3 Floors of Newly Developed housing in West Baldwin!

More prepping in the bathroom

Drywall going up...

Hole cut for the bathroom fan.

Outside work for the fan.

Pulled chicken sandwiches outside!  It's spring!

Down comes the old birdhouse.

Up with the new birdhouse!
