On Friday the insulation company started their work. We chose a 2" layer of spray-in foam to seal all exterior walls. After this, cellulose will be blown in to fill the remainder of the wall studs and attic. There will be fiberglass batts installed in the garage, floor, and ceiling above the dining room (no attic). There are two more days of insulation to be completed before the sheetrock.



We tried to take Friday off, but just couldn't do it. We ended up with two huge bonfires to clean up some scrap lumber piles. We are trying to have as little trash as possible.



On Saturday and Sunday, we had to get back to work on the siding. We have temporarily lost the use of the big lift we were borrowing. Hopefully, we'll get it back soon or we'll be at a stand-still on the siding.



Ryan and Jenny installed all this siding this weekend.



Here's a nice Father's Day photo. We are really enjoying this project as a family. It's hard work, but it's so rewarding. We are so excited to be building our own home.
