(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

When we were living in the mobile home, we got a new computer, so I was excited to move all our pictures to the new one, and be able to access them more quickly and easily.  To do this, I had to transfer them to CD, then install from the CD onto the new hard drive.  It was working quite well, so I got too confident and deleted pics as soon as the CD was loaded.  


But guess what?  Of course, not all the CDs loaded perfectly, and I lost loads of photos...Including most from the framing part of our build.  :-(


But I found a few more today, that I'd saved on Photobucket, and thought I'd share a few more from the early building process...                                                                                                                                                                                                              
Hubby wanted to make sure we were building on the right
Foundation... Psalm 127 starts, "Unless the Lord builds the
house, the builders labor in vain..."


























And remember these fallen trees?                                                                                                                           










This is what they looked like milled.....






for our baseboard, interior window and door trim, stairway posts, island top, etc., etc.

Even with a Computer Genius in house, we sometimes get lazy about backing up our digital files. We lost a bunch of photos, too. The ones I mourn the most was of the cardboard city the boys created out of our cabinet boxes. They cut out doors & windows, had battery operated lights, and wall art, and slept in them for a couple weeks.

I love that you scratched Psalm 127 into your foundation! The perfect start for a family home. Thanks for sharing.

It's the perfect passage for us, since it includes homebuilding AND the part about a quiverfull of children being a blessing from the Lord. :-)
Love the Scripture foundation- perfect! And so cool that you could use wood from your property- what kind of trees are those?
