Problem SOLVED! How We Installed Ramps Over Our Hyperadobe Walls

With the hyperadobe earthbags coming out of the ground, we can't continue to build our roundhouse until we create some ramps to get over the walls and install them. Let's solve a problem together!

This one video makes me realize why your family and projects are so appealing. Smartalecky kids and then to realize they come by it honestly and get it from their parents!! Ashley breaking the fourth wall and talking directly to her Dad means she still harkens to his advice. I still call mine up and talk over the most mundane steps to the projects I'm currently working on- had never thought to video all of it for him until now. Thanks for that inspiration Ash! Love the problem solving, synergy and play that your whole family experiences with the critters clearly being a part of the activities.

As a midwesterner I’m jealous of how little snow you have and how fast it goes away. *grumbles as he heads outside to fix his car* ;-)

Kids, listen to your mother. There are times you need a ramp lol

[sandigray]

That was a joy to watch!! You guys work so well together that even when play happens you still get things done. Laughter is good medicine!! Those skinny hairless dogs are a hoot! Love the body slam, never saw dogs do that before! And of course Kitty, the building inspector was on the job! Thank you for including us in your work and your fun. Love you guys!!

I just watched a mans weather report for the USA. You are about to get worse than normal cold that is going to affect a lot of areas. His report then went on to advise that you are going to get this extreme cold blast again at the end of the month. Be safe folks

Love how much fun your family has together! Super informative as well - taking lots of notes!!!

[marilynlautner]

I love the way you play, work and irritate each other. It’s so family!!! You are so cool!

Ashley, you are such a beautiful mom, wife, and all-around human being❤. You exhibit such patience. Know I've worked projects with my kids and wanted to just cry. Kids humor when critical thinking in the midst of hard work is challenging. I just want to commend you for taking their comments and joking around like an amazing pro that you are. Keep kicking butt!! We all are rooting for you. You work so hard and it doesn't go unnoticed. ❤🥰

Jonathan was having all together too much fun running that full wheelbarrow up and down the ramp!😂 And why, may I ask, do you have ❄️snow? Please🙏 send it to Central Minnesota as we have a severe snow ❄️shortage! And, yes! I like to shovel❄️ snow!☃️💕🐑🦌📚🫖🐈‍⬛

That is so 80s when he said ride off the ramp!! Because we used to build ramps and ride our bikes or skateboards off of them!!! Such a classic statement!!❤❤❤

[janebrummett]

How exciting to see Adali’s tinyest home 😊

[elainekaufman]

Of course everyone needs a ramp...for bikes and skate boards...silly boys and girls

So, AB mix is WHAT again & why do you have to buy it when you dug for the chicken garden? What is the difference in the mixes & why did you have to make it? You were using purchased AB mix and dug up around the site AB mix. I’m super confused. Am I the only one? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[jeangurnee]

Snow! We got dumped on last night...The ramp looks really sturdy :D

[MelissaMalzahn]

I was wondering if you got snow. I hope the ramp works out. You all having fun. ❤

[cannon]

[wadeprior]

Good morning hope you guys have a wonderful day out there so I guess go to the next project I guess have a great day and have fun out there

[eileenpoole]

Love your family. ❤❤You work great together. Are you going to finish the inside walls first, then not have so many barriers? Or leave an access point so no more ramps are required? I'm sure you have it all figured out, but i can't grasp it yet. You have a super houeplan! I cant wait to see the kitchen you've planned! ❤❤❤

[sontisontheim]
