Things are looking SO GOOD up at the cabin! We have made some awesome finishing touches to the cabin. We are getting so close!!



This last weekend we finished two important projects...the bamboo hardwood floor and the stairs! This was all possible due to Mikey's new Makita drill.

The bamboo hardwood floor is more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! It is wild and crazy, but it adds such beauty to the cabin. It's hard to believe that this gorgeous floor is made out of grass! It is the hardest wood floor that you can buy, and we love it! Of course these pictures can't do it justice.



Dan & Terry also worked hard to lacquer the mop boards, which was difficult because of the wind and bugs and everything that kept falling on the boards, but they did a great job! Putting those up will completely finish the beautiful floor!

The stairs are another beautiful sight in the cabin. Mike designed the stair case and he did an amazing job! We have been using a ladder for a year to get up to the loft, and it was so nice to put it away!


At the end of the end of the day the rest of Mike's family came up to celebrate Terry's 54th Birthday! He got all sorts of good things to eat, but the biggest present was a cell phone! Welcome to the 21st century! :-)


It was a late Saturday night as usual, but it was nice to see that all of our hard work is paying off. Our next projects are to paint the upstairs and lay carpet to FINISH the loft. Then to FINISH the downstairs, we need to put down mop boards, install the cabinets, and put new tile counter tops in the kitchen. It is so exciting to bring things to a close! We love the cabin!!
