The Big Day

Guess what we got today! Our lumber dropped. I know what your wondering..."What IS a lumber drop." It's ok if you don't know. The only reason I know is because I am a constructor. All brain injured, 5'2" of me. I can build you a house.



But a lumber drop is just what it sounds like: they drop off all the lumber you need to build your home. We've built the porch cap and did all the green plate, so we're ready for a house. Again, I know what you're thinking: "Every time I've talk to the Kings in the past month and a half they say their going to build their home. If this is all they've done, they're pretty horrible builders." So not true! We are involved in a socialist community here in Provo. Some even wonder if it's like a polygamist compound. There are 7 families building 7 homes, and we can't move in until all 7 are done (see, not polygamist. They have to be all done). Maybe it's the beginning of the Law of Consecration? So we've framed two other houses and now we're on #3, which happens to be our home. Well, they're almost done being framed. So we've had 2 other houses to screw up on and I think we've got it down alright. So now my house will be the best one! Then we'll have 4 more, and by then we'll all be pretty bored with it and we'll just want to hurry up and be done so we can move in. So #3 is the best spot for a home to be built.

Check out the other two we've done! They belong to Tyson and Katie Frandsen and Chris and Ashley Warcup, both families will be some of the best neighbors ever.




Sorry, the Warcup's home is sideways.
