North Carolina Trip: Part 1

After Christmas we headed out east to visit Brad's family. We went to Charlotte, North Carolina to meet up with his parents, brother and sister-in-law. We arrived to day before New Year's. The boys had a ton of fun, as did we! The boys liked their stockings that were as big or bigger than them. Brayden was so excited to have his room filled with balloons when we got there. One of them was always carrying a balloon around...

Brayden always helped Grandma Carol turn on all her lights, after we all got the full tour of the house:

We had a nice evening the first night and waited the second day for Uncle Eric and Aunt Jenn to arrive from Colorado. Then the party started!

Moved & Ready for Visitors!!!

We are officially moved people!!!! After a month and a half of constant work in getting the place ready, we have made the journey and came out in one piece for the most part.  We have gotten things unpacked and put in their respective places.  And been finishing up some details in several rooms.  We have some smaller projects left, but the majority of the work is done and the house looks great!  We now have it decorated for Christmas and ready for Santa to make his stop. Brylee would like to give you a tour! Enjoy the pictures: The front of the house: The side view of the front yard: A view into the backyard: The front porch: The Sunroom: The Kitchen (a little dark), but the paint looks awesome!
