Struse Family Blog





Welcome to our family blog! Follow along with us as we build our new family home! We have waited a REALLY long time, so we want to share the experience with all those we love who are far away! Hope you enjoy it and maybe learn a thing or two. . . .

So, back to work! We spent Friday saw cutting the concrete. We did a few lines in the garage to help prevent future cracking, then we did the main house in 4 foot squares. It turned out quite nicely! I'm continually amazed at my husband's never ending knowledge of all sorts of various machinery! We spent the afternoon picking up loads and loads of the styrofoam blocks so we can start on the walls tomorrow and Monday (since it's a holiday). We'll see how much we can get done. The first layer is always the hardest, but this time we also have to cut out the doors and windows. So we shall see how it goes, and I'll be back to update you all next week! Enjoy your holiday weekend! Next year the party's at our house!! : )


My amazing husband running the concrete saw!

The garage cut into 10' X 12' sections.

The main floor. It was getting dark by the time I remembered to take a picture! But you can see the squares. I LOVE my floor!

Unloading blocks off the trailer. It's always a little scary to drive with them on there. Just one giant accident waiting to happen!

Feasting on icy cold watermelon at the end of a long day! Yummy!
