Father & Son working together

After Jay's dad helped get the basement started, Zack wanted to get in on the action. So, Zack got a chance to help Jay put the drywall up in the school room. Now, Zack is ready to help Jay when the time comes to finish framing and drywalling the rest of the basement - just have the common areas of the great room and the game room.









The guys worked really hard this past week. They got Cassie's room, the walk-in pantry, the storage room, and the school room framed and drywalled. Jay and his dad started running electric and now Jay will get it finished.

Cassie's room looks good . . .

Still Cassie's room.



Here is the school room cubby area. It is a nice size for some storage shelves and bookcases. Then we'll set up some tables to work at. What's nice about this area is it is in front/near the sliding glass doors of the walkout basement. I'm looking forward to having a central location for all the books, reference materials, and tools we need for our schooling adventures. I'm not sure how long it will take to get the final touches on all the new rooms, but it will all come together in time!!

A huge thanks goes out to my father-in-law, who spent his whole vacation here working in our basement. THANK YOU!!!

That is so great that Zack wants to help! He is getting so big, not a little boy anymore. Looks like he is doing a great job and tell him Grandma Linda said so.
