Pictures from Recent Posts

Howdy. Here are the pictures from fishing and pictures of our new townhouse.

^Me and Christian in the car on the way to go fishing.

^A dead deer skeleton we found on the path down to the lake.

Christian showing us one of the bugs we caught and used as bait.

Christian with all the bugs.

Another decomposing deer carcass in the river, covered in flies.

My very safety-conscious grandpa has a rope that he uses for people crossing the river. It was actually really hard to keep your balance with the current. Everyone holds onto the rope, and then if someone falls, the weight of everyone else will keep that person from floating away. Rather ingenious actually. You can see Brooke almost losing her footing here. From left to right in this picture: My uncle Tennessee, my cousin Kira (Laura's 10-year-old daughter), my cousin Nathan (my Uncle Tennessee's 10-year-old son), my aunt Laura (Kira's mother), Brooke (Tennessee's 7-year-old daughter), and my grandpa.

Brooke squeezing the fish that Grandpa caught for her and let her reel in.

Me and Christian in our sexy fishing gear. Waterproof waders, boots, sunglasses, slathered in sunblock, and comfy t-shirts.

Christian perfecting his cast.

Me failing at casting, obviously needing further assistance from my grandpa.

Now you shall be privileged to see pictures of our new townhouse.

The entrance

The backyard (we have weed-whacked since then, and see that tiny shiny metal thing at the end of the hose? That's our sprinkler head. It has two holes and it can water our backyard thoroughly in about 10 minutes.)

Our living room

The other half of the living room. That's the realtor's sign that we have to keep in the window since the townhouse is technically for sale right now.

View of the kitchen from the door.

Guest bathroom

Our big kitchen (hark! the herald angels sing!)

Our walk-in pantry!!!! :D :D :D

The stairs

Our bedroom. We have not quite yet gone to pick up our mattress, though we have bought one (see our last post).

My dresser and the door to the WALK IN closet (! We have a closet!)

Master bathroom

Our "music/book room", home to Christian's French horn, my guitar, my oboe, and all our books over in the right corner (there are more that aren't in the picture). And yes, they are in boxes because we have no bookshelves.

Our craft/study room.

Well, that's the grand tour!

Best wishes!

Love,

Brittany and Christian
