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.

Deuteronomy 11:18-19

New International Version (NIV)

Living Room Stucco First Coat July 2015











Just a quick look see for you. This is about 12-15 wheel barrow loads of stucco! Papa started on Monday and yesterday afternoon he ran out of lime. So today he's off to the city to pick up more lime. He can't reach those top two pieces on either side of the top window. He'll have to get scaffolding to finish those areas. He's hoping to start the second coat inside by Saturday! 


He got this chunk done on the front as well. Right now the plan is to get one coat on all of the outside walls and two coats on the inside walls before winter :)

Front Windows.

Prepping to put the windows in. 


One window in! 


Inside view of both windows in! 


Outside view of both windows in. 


Papa also rebuilt part of the wall above the freezer, took that window out and straightened it and put it all back together again! Front walls are ready for wiring and that's what is on the list for today. Kids and I have a box of cherries to pit and freeze :) and a couple of little swim pools to play in, and our daily school to do. Oh and the kids are writing a page on our recent trip to Barkerville :)

S's Big Boy Bed.


S is sleeping in his big boy bed! He loves it. He napped in it for about 10 days before he spend his first night in it. The next day we took his play pen down for good. It sure makes him look really tiny, and their room look super big! 

Normally we potty train just after their second birthday but we've decided, and learned from J3 who was our other summer baby, that we will not start S until Papa goes back to work full time or even until this fall when life should get a bit more scheduled. 

Sign Update


Added T to the sign and gave the people figures a fresh coat of paint.
