Video Transcript
in last week's episode we begin framing
the flat patio roof on Shae's earthbag
bedroom
[music]
Bryson starts off the week by topping
off the railroad tie entry posts
I'm putting up the board
[music]
did you color coordinate for work today?
yeah I did
wow
no he didn't
it was a coincidence
how do you know that?
you didn't sit there for a half hour picking out your clothes
maybe he turned over a new leaf
He's now
making fashion statements
how's it look?
A plus Bryson
[music]
now that we have the roof
framed in at the top
it's time to put
some of the fascia on the outside or
the rim around the floor
this is all indented so that we
can get up and down the stairs and then pops
out
so we'll have to figure out some
sort of our raindrip system
that will
keep the rain and falling here and head
out that way
one more there
yeah
one more step
yeah, yeah that way
that way
yeah, keep going
over there
you figured it out
good boy
we're filling in between the
rafters now
filling in bags
fill you in because we are filling this in
these rafters
I'm an endangered
species
we're all endangered species
there's only one of us
every single
person is a species to you
we're one of a kind
Diesel dances with you
dance with me
yeah
[music]
the little shelving units worked out too
[mumbles]
okay dad what's up?
it's not even Klingon
that's Steve Harvey
once you guys got just one bag in between these joists they
just tightened this floor up so much
it's amazing
a little bit longer bag this time Mom
okay
no more Swiss cocoa for you
no more Swedish fish
no Swedish
meatballs
no Swedish tacos
oh wait
wait a minute
we don't have Swedish tacos
we are part Swedish so we can say that
You can say that
I don't have any Swede in me
that comes from your mama's side
we have Norwegian and Irish and a couple other things
but mostly we are Swedish
I really
thought I was going down there for a
second
I would of got it all on film
go play Paladins
pick Pip
is it a mouse
or is it a fox?
totally a fox
recently we have been into Paladin's
the video game
its in Beta right now
it's free to download
I think it may stay free
no we're not sponsored
we just like the game because we can
play together and get a party going
the name of the game for Call of Duty is kill
everyone
this one you have like a mission and
something you have to do
each character has a role and they are all needed
it's so much fun
mom and dad keep running into our rooms
is everything okay
yeah, we just won
the excitement of winning is is really
fun
we ran it on the livestream because
it was a lot of fun
I wasn't there
personally I was sick but they were and
they had fun
I already watched it]
it's our best livestream we've done yet
definitely want to go check that out
definitely
the tail would be mousy if
that was the case
it's totally a fox
I still think it's a mouse
It's not a mouse. It's a fox
mouse
it's not a mouse
its a mouse
[music]
so far so good
I actually smell that drink
it smells really good
let's get this done
I want one
I want one
I can smell it with my nose
your nose is
amazing
[music]
what's up dog?
[music]
did you catch that?
what?
here we go
three times in a row
we wouldn't even need cans
you could sit here shooting
little dirt things
go go go
no bad idea
ready, here we go
no way
dad has been working
on his sarcasm cuz we have been
we've been teasing him about it so now he's
like alright
I'm going to learn sarcasm so
anyway
let's go see how he's doing
I don't believe in sarcasm
does that means your
sarcasm experience is not going very
well
there's no such thing as sarcasm
it's a filament of your indignation
the families are really good at sarcasm
it's one of the ways they express humor and
it's so funny to see their reactions to
me practicing with this idea of sarcasm
because well I'm not so good at it and
anyway I've been playing with this idea
and trying
but it keeps coming out
snarky and and I don't have the
hang of it yet
No, I don't practice it anymore
you quit cold turkey
cold turkey
you were making vast
improvements
we were so impressed
people
make fun of me
everybody keeps laughing
at me for my sarcasm but I think it's
for the wrong reasons
[music]
he's all in position
foot up
good boy
[music]
around the other way on that brick
[music]
Shae came out and she joined me
so awesome
[music]
this is the first time she's
I think this is the first time that she's
used the nail gun
don't mess with me
I need three more
[music]
good
it's a wood wench thingy ma bob to hold the wood in the place
it's a board straightener
straightens up boards
it's a rafter twister placer
is that like your board stretcher?
similar to the board stretcher
since this roof is a heart
not everybody builds hearts
every single cut
that I have to make is custom so it has
to be measured and little mistakes done
now and then but for the most part
we're able to get it all on
but it takes a lot
more time
hey guys
the last of the bagging?
at least on this side
[music]
I am finding the center of the board and then I'm going to mark it
draw a line and mom will cut it
the patio part of the
roof
yep
we're a dad down today so
we're having to go solo
what we are
supposed to do
the grains are suppose to go one way or the other
patterned up
there
so we have specific instructions
that we're supposed to cut this in half
and lay these down the middle so let's
see how it goes
yeah that was efficient
A+ nice work
guys here we go
hey, what do you know
dad measured these right
okay Shae, you need something sharp to cut that?
yeah
see this board
yeah
okay we're good
this helps this board not to squeak
how fast does this
stuff dry?
oh it's almost instant
yeah right
it looks good
nail gun?
did you get the grains going this way?
[music]
these nails are called ring shanks
who makes these names?
I'm goin to call them ring shanks
load her up
hey mom do you want me to cut that?
did I not cut it straight last time?
okay come and do it
not really
but you know
I was going to let you cut it because you looked like you wanted to cut it
wait a second, maybe there's a
reason he politely said that
Alright, I can take a hint
especially when you tell me straight out
I don't
think we need it
really it's gonna fit
I never had a learning curve
I was testing new techniques
you had to teach yourself to glue?
yeah
exactly
but you did awesome
it just up for debate
it looks good up here Bry
you did good
awesome
[music]
yesterday Garen was sick
today Bryson is sick
so yesterday we had Bryson
working on the building and today we
have Garen
can you push yours out a
little bit
we believe in you Bree
we have
been filling in the rafters with little
mini bags
don't film me
I don't have my makeup on
I see that you don't have your makeup on
man
[music]
what is amazing about these
steps is just pinching them between the
bags makes them so strong
I mean obviously we're gonna do something on
this side but we can actually use these
steps with confidence
I'm pretty comfortable on these
they've got that foot hanging out on the
other side and then these are supported
by some bricks
very very stable

We moved from the city to the country in 2005. Since then, we have been building structures, raising livestock and growing some of our own foods. We are crazy about family, nutrition and want the best for our growing family.
