Ok we went out of town this weekend, so i have a little catching up to do. \u00a0Thankfully, lots has been accomplished and we are moving right along at a fairly steady pace. \u00a0Enjoy the pics!<\/p>\n

\"That<\/a>
That is a miraculous stack of wood...<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"...and<\/a>
...and a lot of it!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ok so here is the story on the wood. \u00a0Our gracious and EXTREMELY<\/strong><\/em> generous cousin Ardalia E. Martin and family gave us two bundles of 2×4’s. \u00a0They told us to come pick them up and that they were 8′ studs. \u00a0With their help, we loaded the trailer by hand and got them safely back to the house where we proceeded to unload and neatly stack them as you can see from the pics.<\/p>\n

The downstairs ceilings are 9′ so our intention was to use these 8′ studs for the upstairs and the apartment but since my dad and i don’t exactly know how to frame we were talking with Andrew about how exactly this was going to work out. \u00a0In the course of the conversation we got to looking and the dimensions weren’t stamped on the lumber as apparently they usually are, so we measured them to make sure they were stud length and not a full 8′ and much to our surprise, these two bundles are all 9′ studs! \u00a0This means that we aren’t going to have to buy any <\/em>2×4 studs and the upstairs and apartment are going to have 9′ ceilings because that is now the most efficient way to go!!! \u00a0Thanks be to God for His infinite wisdom and mercy and to Ardalia and family for their unending generosity!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
