Deuteronomy 11:18-19

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

House Update :) June 2013

It's been slower going then we'd hoped but we are slowly getting the walls ready for stucco. 


We've been working on getting the straw walls ready to stucco. Here is our bedroom wall at the back of the house. Almost ready to stucco!! 


Looking down the house. The walls on the right are ready to stucco. The wall on the left needs that board along the top insulated and lathed before stuccoing. I should have taken a picture of the front wall.. you can sort of see it here at the far end. It needs to be finished/sealed yet on the top but the rest of it is finished. 


Part of our new 'to us' cupboards for the house. There is a lot of them and I can't wait to be able to use them :) 


Papa weed whacking the outside of the house. Weed whacking gets the loose straw off the walls and helps the stucco to stick better. It also helps you to find holes that will need lathe to make the wall straight.. there is one such hole on the right side of the picture in the middle before the window.


The finished outside corner. Before you could see the pole inside the wall and now you can't :)
