Thanks to everyone who came out to help us raise our porch frame.  We were not sure how many people it would take to lift, but we ended up with the perfect number.  I finished the rafters for the corner after the raising. Next, we will work on the roof and then siding. 

It was cold outside today, about 10 degrees and windy.  We all worked together to fit the final wall of the porch frame as fast as we could!

Brett's been working on the porch frame.  It is very long!  

Meanwhile, some fun things are happening inside the house, too!  

• a homemade chin up bar and workout area
  
• new dishes in the cabinets
• a shiny new range hood
