At our new Place



The girls quickly settled into our new home. The paved driveway was a huge exciting world to explore!! The band aids we went through those first few weeks!! Skinned knees and toes!


                            Elin put Eva's Trike basket to good use pretty quickly!
                        Then the construction began on the new barn!! This was Ryan's first solo building adventure, and he was pretty unsure of his skills, but after some phone calls to his dad, he started, and it quickly began to take shape. The girls loved helping(or hindering!) Our goats were staying at a farm close by until we got their barn ready for them, so we were very excited to get it done so they could come home to our new place!




             The roofing! The girls quickly learned to take the plastic strip off of the shingles for Ryan and I . Did they ever love helping !

                                      The roof going on.

                                                  Elin enjoying the heat!


                  After Ryan and I got one side of the roof shingled, we had some friends come and help. What we did in 6 hours, they did in 1  ..Crazy!!!



                                   The girls have made new friends (with new toys!) and are very happy here.
