Barn Destruction

Well, for those of you who know me well you will remember the barn I used to live in on Greenfield road. It was awesome living there. My mom had boutiques 4 times a year and she was the boutique queen. Everyone knew her (and still does) and there was never a better boutique than the ones my mom had.


The bedroom I had was the best ever! I felt so special because my brother Matt who is an awesome framer/superintendant built it for me. I had a bed in the wall, a loft, built in desk, and most importantly.....a huge closet! A large enough closet that it even had a window! Man I was lucky! Anyways, I have lots of good memories at the Barn.


Eventually it was time to move on and my parents sold it to a lutheran church. The church contacted my parents a year or so later and told them that it will cost too much money to make the barn up to code for a church and all that legal lingo. So, they paid my parents to take the barn down.


SO NOW FOR THE SECOND TIME IT WAS TORN DOWN. Yes, as a family we first tore it down in Iowa, brought it home and rebuilt it. Now, we have torn it down again and it will be rebuilt eventually into a home! CRAZY,HUH? What a history for a 1906 barn.


So here are a few photos of the crazy process.
