The Armstrong's Log Home: December 2015

We are here....our cabin in the woods. We will close on our Tulsa home Tues. December 15th, but went ahead and moved in the week before Thanksgiving. We had our first family holiday in the cabin having the crew here for Thanksgiving. For the most part we had the house ready for family. Beds were made, groceries bought and Chex mix made. The kids will be at their in laws for Christmas this year so ours will be quiet and the cabin will have just a touch of Christmas on display. I am thinking about having our open house NEXT Christmas so keep that on your radar for December 2016. I am looking forward to dressing up the place in all of its Christmas Glory. My kids do not call me "Mother Christmas" for nothing. Someone said we will be working on the cabin for years just to get it finished. I'm beginning to believe that to be true. We still have boxes to unpack and trying to find places to to put the "stuff". Thank goodness for a basement with a storage room. The basement walls are only sheetrocked at this time. So add this to the "to do list" as well as landscaping, lower deck and driveways. There are the smaller inside jobs to do as well. We try to knock some of those out on weekends. Today Terry made the "barn doors" for our bedroom closet. I have sealed the shower ceilings and my next job will be to finish placing rope where the logs meet sheet rock. This really gives a good rustic look. Enjoy a few of our pictures.

Merry Christmas to all!
