our little fall project

Back in April of 2006 we purchaced our first home. We are now officially North Enders. It is a nice little house with good neighboors. In fall, we decided to build a garage out back. Here are a few photos of construction in progress...

Construction begins around 9 in the morning



First wall is up! The Constructors for the day (and in order of appearance on photo) are Stan, Julio, Jeremy, Dad Loewen and Alex.




Our busy back yard. What's with Jer's expression? Did you just step on a nail or what? Where is your tool belt? Are you the official stand-around guy? Are you busy keeping the wall in place with your foot? Good job, keep it up.





The sun is starting to set as we start the rafters.



The last rafter is put into place as the day fades to black.
