Since the guys Ken hired to help complete the roof decking finished it all by the end of the week, it was time to lay the roofing felt (AKA tar paper). Ken wanted to knock it all out in one day, and luckily him and Ian were able to do it all yesterday- before 2pm! This was not an easy task; it was 93°, and working with that black paper made it that much hotter. I was on the ground and could see the heat coming off the paper! They would unroll an entire spool of it and it would still be fairly cool, but when they went back to nail it off, they actually burned their hands.
They worked pretty quick; they used up all 5 rolls of paper we had, and I had to run to Home Depot twice for more.

Hans and his boys stopped by! Unexpected but welcomed surprise :)

Also, it's about that time we decide on a window design. Should we go with muntins, or without? We're leaning towards the muntins...
With muntins
Without
WOW! I have been slacking off in keeping up with your blog. I am back. The house looks great and you have been busy little bees. Interesting - The muntins looks better from the outside, but then it would be nice to look out from the inside & not see the lines. Great Job... MOM
