Unbelievably Busy...

 It has been a whirl-wind week...The Utility/Bath room is coming along! The guys are doing an awesome job and I am loving it!!

 I play the gopher, go for this, bring me that, pick that up, hold this, etc and I don't mind one bit. Love being able to help. I am also learning quite a bit too. 

 They are almost done with their part...We hired them to do the framing and put the outside sheeting up and then I will finish up with metal sheeting outside and insulation and walls on the inside!

 Not much longer until we have to move and hopefully we'll have most of it done by the time we move in...

This afternoon after we finished Michael was wandering around and kept finding interesting things...Mom!! Mom!! Come look at this!! Mom take a photo!! He has a good eye!

 Locust!


 Rapid Wolf spider

 Water droplets on a Passion Plant Bloom!


 Passion Plant Bloom framed in...I am in a framing kind of mood, lol!


 Mom!! Mom!! Come look, bring the camera!! I found an itty bitty Praying Mantis. She was tiny too and I had to put the Macro lens on the camera. She was about the size of a thumb nail.


Michael found this Cocoon hanging under a rock too!! Good eye Michael! Oh so pretty!!

We had a good day and got a lot accomplished.
I feel a bit bad for Michael as today was his first day of Summer break and he spent it working with us down at the property! Not a good way to spend your summer break but he knows that is what is happening most of June and July!! Thank goodness we have the pool and can cool off and play for a little bit!! I love my son and he is a trooper and a great helper. I got him a giant contractors magnet and he's been going around finding and picking up Nails, Screws and Staples!! Our motto is "save our tires Michael!!"

Rolling along...

Our load of wood arrived yesterday....


 Framing started today...

We are having a utility/bathroom built so we can have a little more room in the barn.
In the barn we are just having the bedrooms and a small bathroom framed and then we are leaving the rest open...It's so nice to see things moving along...Not long and we will be living there, yeah!!
