Projects around the house!

We have lived in NC for a little bit over a week! During that week we have discovered new stores and restaurants we are wanting to check out, met a bunch of really nice people, explored our property and are doing repairs and unpacking boxes at our house. We have done a lot of work over the week and have many projects planned for next week! Here are a few work in progresses.

I am adding a miniature library to my closet. I only emptied 2 boxes full of books and I am going to need to purchase another huge bookcase to go on the left side. Maybe once I get everything a situated I might hang up some fabric on the walls for a dramatic effect!

Mom has unpacked the whole kitchen and is beginning the school room, Dad has been busy unpacking his tools, my brother is busy re-builidng his Lego sets and I am just unpacking all my stuff. I think my room is starting to look like a room!

And lastly, the sorta unnecessary but well used TV has been unpacked. Thank you bro! It was a rainy afternoon and we all were relaxing a bit and my brother asks if he can set up the TV. Both mom and dad said yes, and he began his project right away. It seriously only took him an hour to hook it up!

And that's the only the beginning of our projects! There will be a lot more coming once we finish unpacking.

Today we get pigs

After lunch today, we're driving a few hours to pick up the pigs. We're getting two Berkshire crosses today and one Kune-Kune on Sunday from a different place. Dad has built the training pen behind the stove, you can see on the right there's the water and the far left is their house. And, of course, Scotty named the two pigs, Bop and Bonk 😂 Can anyone guess what those names are from?

The aftermath of the storm

The storm wasn't as bad as the weather Channel said, but there was still quite a bit of rain and wind. No tornadoes or thunder. A lot of branches and pinecones fell and some of the pathways were flooded. But no serious damage! Now we have a lot to clean up after the next storm on Friday 😄

A tour around our house!

Here is a tour of our house! We will start with the outside. This is the front porch/sitting area. And this is our dining area in the kitchen. Cant forget this dramatic picture of the chandelier! And here is the view off our back deck! The play structure has Scotty's shelter on it. Now an update on the pets! Lucy is doing great! She has been going on walks every morning and night without getting scared. She even goes out onto the dock with us sometimes. And occasionally she will chase squirrels around the yard! She is getting more comfortable with the ducks, but doesn't like to sniff them because one bit her nose! But other than that, she loves it out here. Tea and Crumpets are also doing good. Just being guinea pigs. We have let them play outside in a cage and they loved it! They also get to play around my room sometimes too. Finally we have Pickles and Sapphire. They too, are doing good. They are still crazy loud and messy. But they are happy. The ducklin...
