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

The Back Of The House. First Coat.

Before stucco. 

The whole area to be stuccoed. There are two walls that needed stucco in this picture. The other one is on the side of the house in the milking parlour area right in front of Isabel in the picture. The top wall isn't ready to be stuccoed yet. It will be the last straw bale wall. Papa is working on it and the upstairs side walls so they are ready before our winter hits. 


Here it is after the first coat of stucco. The side wall has not been completed in this photo. I love the little deck he's made back there. 


Isabel had leaned on the parlour gate that morning and snapped it in two! It was a old weak board and Papa replaced it and the latch that same day. Good thing too as the steers and Maggie came up from the back the next week and they would have put moe stress on it then the old one could have handled. 

Here is the other wall after its first coat was finished. That orange tarp covers our milking machine :) The side walls he's working on now will seal the top floor. You can see into the top floor in this picture. 
This is a picture where you can see the start of the side walls. There is more done now, but this is the best picture I've got now. You can see the stucco is hard and white in this picture as well.
