Drew has a project he's doing for History. They are supposed to make a home just like the settlers would have done back when the "New World" was being populated. They can only use raw materials or materials that they could have obtained back in colonial times (like nails). So he enlisted help from his little brother. They collected twigs and downed tree limbs and now you can see what they've done so far. The wheelbarrow is full of mud they are using to keep the house wind and water proof. He didn't ask for any help, so he may have problems with the waterproof part, but I am really proud of what he has gotten done so far.

That is SO cool!!
How cute! Drew (with the help of Grant)is doing a great job!! You'd think that his Daddy built houses or something. =) I hope he gets an "A".
Cool house, guys! We love you!
Very creative....a "builder" in the making!!!! :)
great job boys!
Heh fellows, I really like your cabin. I am sure helping you Dad has taught you lots. Let us know your grade, but if you need too tell them that Gram gives you both an "A". I love you!
Drew&Grant, Nice lookin' cabin. Did you give it the August rain test? I bet your teacher (not being a builder) wasn't smart enough to think of that when they were grading it. It reminds me of a cabin/fort that your Uncle Lincoln & I built when I was about 12. It was @7'x7' with a 2/12 (we figured that out minus the speed-square) pitch on the roof.( we skipped the rain test as well:(...) Love you guy's, can't wait to get back home! Since you missed moose season this year because of this job we might ought to see about a winter hunt somewhere?! Dad
