Framing It Up
We’ve got sticks going up! I will forever be grateful for the connections we’ve made along the way that have allowed us to use trusted contractors. My dad was part of the framing team that framed our house and that gave me a sense of security, knowing that not only he would be overseeing the work being doing, but also be part of the actual framing of our house.

As you can tell from the picture above Kayden was the official site supervisor throughout our whole building process. He approved of our framing team. There was never a time where we would go check out the progress and Kayden wasn't hands on with something. Whether it was taking measurements, handing material to the workers, or hammering some nails on a random wood plank, he was always involved.
I am not a visual person when it comes to construction, so although I was excited, I wasn’t really sure what I was looking at when the framing was complete. There were some times I worried that we did not have enough space. Looking back now, I laugh. But all in all, I need to give major credit to those who can see the vision with nothing but sticks up, that is a true skill. I didn’t get an idea of what our home would look like until we have walls!
