Oh, the sky was beautiful today!! With our family and friends we were out to enjoy it from sun up to sun down. Even though we were knee deep in years of hay, horse manure, and junk (not cool junk) the day was truly special for all of us. The barn is now clean and ready to move!! I love diving into a Vintage Barn but it's usually not to clean it but to peruse for great finds. I am not lying, cleaning out our barn was not at all glamorous but the best find uncovered today was the barn floor. Our neighbor, who at one time lived in our house, said that the barn was filled with hay and years of junk from the time he could remember! Yes, it is cleaner than he has seen it in 40 years. I love the feeling of bettering something from the past to preserve it for the future.
The day was filled with inspiration from friends and neighbors that showed up to help clean and the best part...our children got to play in the barn for the first time since we have lived in our home. They were as excited as we were to have the barn purposeful once again.
Next...Barn to be MOVED, yes lifted in the air, scheduled April 21st or 22nd!! Get ready..
XOXO
