We came home from our relaxing week at Jon's in Minnesota and dove directly into our next projects in the attic. Feeling refreshed we decided to begin putting up drywall along the north wall. As you can see, this is us putting up the first piece. From there we spent the rest of the day struggling to get corners and angles to line up(ya gotta love crooked old houses!!!)! Then it was onto the west wall and ceiling. James did most of the drywall stuff while Owen and I put up the vapor barrier and Gavin and Quinn helped to clean up with the vacuum and pass daddy screws. The kids were there to support us the entire time and after a long day, 10 pieces of drywall were cut up and installed!
This past weekend we hung the lights and wired for electricity! James was really pleased when the lights all went on and the outlets all worked on the first try. He must be getting good(...don't worry, I won't let it go to his head!)
We got word that our contractor will hopefully be coming sometime this week to put in our roof vents and stairs! Please keep your fingers crossed that they come because we are pretty much done with projects that we can do until the stairs are in. I will keep you all posted as work progresses.
