Thank you everyone! My step-dad and brother are from Rhinelander, which is about 3 hours or so away from us. They took time out of their busy schedules to come help us! Hubby said it will be another couple weeks till he can get the barn and fence done enough for the boys to come home.......hopefully it will go quickly. The barn inside will be just set up with movable panels for now, and the fence will be the 6' tall 4"x2" field fence with electric inside and out. Eventually, come spring, we'll be adding the white rail board fence. We could have had this done sooner, but the place where we bought the materials from took forever to get it delivered!

You have to make them all something special for doing this!

Yup...........been fixing these men plenty of comfort food to fill them up, and keep their bellies warm!
What will the inside look like??
It's so nice to be loved, eh?
It is wonderful to be loved!!!! I think my family would do just about anything for me!
The barn inside will have a feed room, hay storage, and cart and trailer storage.........hopefully we made it big enough (30'x45')! The boys pens will take up about 9' x 36', and there will be 4 pens, each having their own door to the outside, and with moveable dividers in case I should need to make adjustments. The pen fronts will eventually look just like stall fronts with sliding doors. All the wood inside will be white oak, so there will be no little beavers in my barn! The barn outside will be white about 2/3rds of the way down, with green steel on the bottom. Green roof and trim, two sliding doors, one on each end, so we can drive right through if we ever need to.
Okay that is not just love - that is something much, much greater
How very blessed you are indeed.
It is definately something else! I didn't even have to ask these two men to come help, they offered! Hubby took this project on himself, and was so excited..........I do mean SO excited to build this barn! He put alot of thought into this building, which makes it all that much more special to me. I've never had a new barn before..........this is definately a dream come true for me!
I have to really give that hubby of mine alot of credit! We have been at this "project" for months since we found out we were moving. First it was the cleaning and getting ready for showing our old house, then it was searching for a new home, packing 5 buildings worth of stuff, moving (believe me, everything that could go wrong, did go wrong!), unloading, getting settled, and now building a barn!
