Our home is a 20,000 square foot steel building. It includes a garage for our two school busses, a gym room, a play room, and a school room. (Joanne homeschools all the children!)

The kids will sleep in six dormitory-style bedrooms. There are three full bathrooms upstairs. A handicap bathroom downstairs has a total of 8 toilets and sinks on the boys' and girls' sides. Another half-bath gives an even dozen toilets, so no one needs to stand in line!

The laundry room will be used continually and Joanne hopes to get another washer and dryer. Up until now, she only has one of each!

The huge country kitchen includes a dining area large enough to seat the entire clan for three meals a day. In addition to four freezers, Joanne will finally have a walk-in pantry - a 400 square-foot walk-in pantry! - to store enough food to cook almost 100 meals a day!

The pictures shown here are of the original house assembly. More recent photos will be coming soon.
