We've been so busy since our last posting.
- ICH is totally done with the exterior walls.
- Second floor is now framed.
- Front porch, breezeway, and carport slabs are done.
- Roof trusses are in place, decking is being done today
- Breezeway is partially framed.
We've had some weather delays, but nothing major. So far, the weather is cooperating for us to keep going full steam ahead. Our framing crew has been a blessing from God. They are so honest,fair, and reliable. Those qualities can be hard to find in construction.
Even though, our construction process is going well right now, please pray for us as we continue this journey, which can be a roller coaster ride of emotions. I keep praying the verse:
" And I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them." Isaiah 42:16

Me on top of second floor before walls were finished. It's a little scary up here.
This is bracing used by Insulating Concrete Home to secure second floor walls before the concrete was pumped into the walls.
