Views From the House

I'm amazed at how much we can see from the house windows. Ok, I KNEW how much we were going to be able to see from working on the house ever since we got the windows in BUT it's so DIFFERENT living in those views :) 

One half of the view from our bedroom window. Look Isabel and Maggie! 

The other half of the view! (Tarp is covering the plywood for the floor) 

This is the kitchen window, I didn't take pictures of the side dining window. See there is the trailer parked up front! 

And here you can see the piglets creep feed pen! 

Step out the front door...

And you can see the whole yard! Turn a little bit...

And you can see the front of the entrance! Turn a bit more....

And you can see what the kids are calling 'the stage' (the open entrance wall) and the soon to be floor area and the cow and pig pen and shed in the back :) 

Here is a picture of the entrance last night while the boys did chores. 

Trailer is OUT!!!

It was amazing :) I have a movie of it on the phone that I can't seem to post. 

They have arrived!  See our green truck? All 7 kids were in there with granola bars and apples for breakfast. They had a nice view that way and I didn't have to worry about them getting in the way. 

First they hooked it up to their winch and lifted it way way up! 

Then Papa went along and cut most of the supports. Then they drove this little wheeled thingy under it also using a winch. They got it placed under the rails of the trailer and set the trailer down on top of it. 

Getting the trailer ready and setting it on blocks after took most of the 2.5 hours they were here. 

Here they are ready to hook the trailer to the truck. I didn't get a single picture of it moving out as I was taping it and I can't seem to share the movie on here. I'll try and share it on Instagram #griggsfamilyhomestead later today. 

It sure left a big hole to fill!! 

Looks awesome to me!! :)
