esme wears dresses so often i love seeing her in jeans and boots =)
we go early in the morning and work for just an hour or so until it gets too hot for mama =) around 9 am!!
and the kids get covered in bug bites...so the new rule is to wear jeans
we have spent a total of $40 so far on the coop!
pretty good really....
we have scrounged around and found lots of small 2 x 4's that weren't in use and used those for the little wall...then used the leftovers from the wood mizer for the sides...
i found an old roll of screen that we are stapling up inside the coop to cover up the cracks...and bits and pieces of wire mesh for the larger holes...
we bought the rafters..the main beam is a hewn one from the property...
today josh said we could just stretch a canvas tarp and nail it down for a roof...much cheaper than tin...
so maybe tomorrow we'll do that!
jack has been the hammer-er for the boards all the way around the top of the wall...a job he takes quite seriously =)
