Wow, we've been so busy since moving into the new house! Painting, planting flowers, and just plain settling in. Here are some recent shots of Lexi.

Catawba Falls Camping Trip!

Over Memorial weekend we went camping with the Wilcox's (great friends). We stayed at Catawba Falls Campground and I would not recommend it to anyone. You can drive about 10min. further to Pisgah National Forrest and camp for $5 a night and have much better sites!

Friday we tried to find a waterfall, but never even found the trail head. Saturday we hiked up Catawba Falls. The kids all managed the trail with minimal piggy back rides. Excluding Kaleb, but he was truckin it where he could. We made it to the base of the highest falls and the kids splashed and played in the pools at the bottom. PJ and Chris decided to hike to the very top of the waterfall. Not the safest hike! They both made it up and back down safely and enjoyed themselves.

The outside

I just realized I haven't posted pictures of the outside of the house finished yet.
We will have a black front door and black shutters.



Cabinets, Trim, and Doors!

We have all our trim in place and the doors installed!

Our kitchen cabinets.

This row of cabinets over looks the dining area and straight ahead is the back door.
Our sink will be in the middle and the dishwasher to the left.

The stove will go in the empty spot.
Directly to the left (out of the picture) is where the fridge will go.
I took this picture standing in the door way for the utility room that connects to the garage.

The kitchen

Master bathroom countertop. The sink will be on the right.
