House Progress-Metal

April 26, 2013

26 Apr
Yesterday we had some major progress on the house! The south wall is up as well as part of the roof and three feet up all around the house! Now it is looking a lot bigger to me.
MY PORCH!!! So far, my absolute favorite part of our home. Look how long this thing is! I can’t wait to put some rockers and flower pots on it. I am also going to stain it. Any suggestions on a color?
Looking from our bathroom to the other side of the house.
I know what you are probably thinking. “This chick is flat out building a barn to live in. How Oklahoman of her.” Well yes, a lot of barns are built with metal BUT I promise you, this will have Sheetrock and everything just like a “real” house. I am even investing in some shutters and windows. HA! =)
The south wall. I am really happy with the two color combinations I picked out. Now to pick out what color I am going to paint my front door……..thoughts?
Standing on the back side of our house. Our french doors will be back here to walk onto our patio.
Dad and Zack burning some of our brush and cleaning up around the house.
Not that this photo should excite you as much as it does me but we have electric to run to the house now! See people, I promise it will be like a “real” house. Most barns don’t have electricity! =)
I am so excited! I hope by next week we will have all of the walls up and we can start to spray on our insulation and move on with this process!!!!

    I think your door should be kind of bright to add a nice pop of color. like marine blue or a red

    I was going to suggest turquoise for the door! It would be very “southern” of you :) I am completely obsessed with your porch! I can’t wait to see more progress :)

Instagram post 2156776953307645382_20205771 We lost our beautiful girl, Rose and I’m just sick about it. My dad found her dead this morning as she’d been attacked by a pack of coyotes along with her calf. This girl was more than just Paisley’s cow. She brought me so much inspiration. She created a lot of business for me. Was my logo, t-shirt line, and produced several babies for us to raise and sell. It’s a big loss but we are thankful for her. My dad traded out some work on a tailgate with another fellow rancher for her several years ago when she was a calf and she’s been one of the absolute best mommas. We love and will miss you sweet girl. #rafterpsranch
