Out our front doors upstairs!

On Sunday Morning we saw a deer grazing in the front yard.

On Friday we poured the cement for the front pad in front of the house that the porch would go on.

Here are the photos of the front porch in process - a trailer load of lumber - balancing the 8 x 8 posts that we got free - Howard planning the side supports.  I will add photos of the finished deck later.

Every morning this is the view I wake up to - the big pine tree with the little hill in the background - the sun rises and turns the sky pink then blue then yellow. 

Here is the kitchen window view - the view is across our yard and onto the neighbors field with the hay bales rolled up and the trees beginning to turn. 

Thanks for viewing our updates.

The finishing touches!

We have finished most of the big stuff and we are tweaking stuff now. Howard is building the front deck. Mike is creating his own room downstairs - called by mom the "Man Cave".

Enjoy these photos of us eating for the first time upstairs, Sandy in her kitchen, the bathroom sink, the living room with carpet and furniture, a view of Howard's handiwork as he spent a week on the backhoe tractor cleaning more land, and a view from the distance.
