Purpose
This is a weblog of the Koop Family, located in the Twin Cities of the great state of Minnesota. This blog tracks the conception, design, and construction of our home in Ham Lake, MN, a truly custom home dedicated to the nurturing of the family as the "domestic church" (Ecclesia domestica). Our goal is to create a home that prefigures our eternal home, and fosters the raising of children who will become saints in the kingdom of heaven.

I am lucky enough that have that gorgeous view of the National Shrine from my costume shop window. It's an inspiring thing to see every day. Please pray that our dad makes it to the airport on time Wednesday night so we can both enjoy the Papal Mass together!
