Who else bypasses YouTube channels to immediately watch Cole the Corn Star ? Fantastic!. This house is gonna be so solid for you, your family, their family and on and on !!!

I love that Justin is getting more comfortable with a camera. He is the brains behind it all and I would love to hear more from him.

I am watching this on May 21st...while Iowa is being ripped apart by massive tornadoes 🌪. I pray that all is well with the Cornstar family and friends! Prayers for the state of Iowa and its citizens as well! 😢

Roman !
You know if you would have saved one of the half sections of the stairs you could have made a two-story chicken coup.
Then you just tell the city that it's a playhouse for your children. Don't tell them about the chickens. 😏😉

🙋‍♀️❤️. Everything is going so great. I just pray that the Cornstar family, neighbors and friends, ❤ and buildings and crops have been spared damage from recent weather. 🙏

Loved each worker speaking, especially Justin 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[classypiano]

Thinking of you with all the extreme rain and tornados. Hope your crops weren't flooded out. Give us an update soon.

[judytruesdell]

PRAYERS FOR PROTECTION- because of the BAD weather( tornados) hope y’all will be safe 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

You three introducing yourselves is so much fun. Its not just Roman who is strong, all three of you are amazing!

Your home is looking wonderful!

Remember taking mattresses and box springs upstairs around the corners of these new stairs!!

[ChessIsJustAGame]

I sincerely hope and pray all are safe and no damage to the house and farm. I can't wait for the reveal. You will have to show your wife and mom seeing it. That opening between the attic and the floor below that will show off the wondows in the attic will be epic.

Justin, I want to congratulate you on all your skills, I can tell you've been at this for a while. I understand almost everything you, Roman and Cole are doing! I've been married to a contractor for 54 years. He is now retired but never sits still. Great job so far and you all have a lot to be proud of!

[sawwhetchick]

Praying you are safe from the tornado!

[sherrygreene]

Hope you’re in your safe space. Your area is getting pounded. Prayers

[bonnabrimhall]

I’m loving the remodel of this home (even though I cringe a little every time you call it a restoration). I’m anxiously awaiting the sheet rocking of this house and the decoration of the interior!!
Hope y’all are safe from the storms marching across your state!

[comeandtravel]

I hope you made it through today's tornadoes. I mentioned hurricane straps for your rebuild of the mansion previously. Look at Greenfield, IA just sw of you. If that doesn't convince you to buy a couple grand worth of straps well all I can say is good luck.

Loved Cole's creativity of the Ab stackles, specifically #3: "The D in this case is silent." Also, the personal introductions were very creative and chuckle worthy.

[garahastings]

Praying for you and your family as the storms are moving through!

[iamwhoiamd]

How awesome and I am excited to see part 2 of your stairs. Hope you have all faired well from the storms too. God Bless you all.
