Mark and Ron in front of the house
Kim and Sarah in the shed
Mom and Sarah looking at a cool spider. And for the record, no Sarah is not helping mom with moving rocks. We made sure of that!
Sarah getting our food ready
The hole where the spiral staircase will go in
The back windows...YEAH!!! They're in and they didn't fall out the next day.
Dad and Nakita playing catch
The big windows that need to still go in (VERY HEAVY!!)
This is only a part of the wood Mom and Kim moved all weekend.
For those of you intersted in the the new baby that will be joining the Bruemmer Family...here are a few shots of the "mini" shower we had while Kim and Mark's parents were in town.
Baby gifts from the McClure's
Baby Gift from Bob and Chris Bruemmer
Gift from Mom...yes she quilted the enitre book
Some things from Kim...Even though they said no pink, I just couldn't resist the pink "Princess in Training" outfit from Disney. The turtle actually is a night light and it projects the stars on the ceiling.
And last but not least, the bump. I'm sure Sarah will kill me for putting this picture up, but it really shows how far along she is and the other pictures don't! In this picture, we are making fun of a circle belt she was trying on and how well it blended in with her shirt.

And The Walls Go Up
With the help of MANY friends....
Carrying the Walls up the hill (it looks small, but when you are carrying something it's EVEREST!)
Aligning the Walls
The LAST WALL going up!
Admiring the work...
A look at the interior walls
A look at the exterior walls
Floor - Day Two
The Weather for Day 2 was NOT as nice as Day 1, but we made it through...ok...Mark and Andy made it through, Sarah and Kim sat in the Shed trying to stay warm!
So you can see we had a very different day...
Sarah's Dad and the 2 Dogs getting ready to work.
Sarah was the firebug today...
Every Sheet needed to be carried up the hill...I (Kim) was SO HAPPY when Ben showed up and took over my job of carrier. My Minnesota lungs and arms were not strong enough for that!
And then the rain came!
And came....
But Mark and Andy kept going and finished!
Oh...and the hole Mark is standing by, well that's for the spiral staircase. We all had the pleasure of watching him fall down it about 10 mins after this picture was taken. Good thing he didn't get hurt.
Now for the Floor - Day One...GORGEOUS!
And the Building Begins

Hi Every!
