camden, pups & the lake house...

11.09.2008

We spent the weekend visiting with family in Camden & it was a full house - 9 adults & 7 pups. Yes, 7 four-legged furry friends. It seems that the family grows (with dogs) each time we go - and this time was no exception. The newest additions to the Granberry family were present with all their cuteness! Brownie & Birdie were "rescue pups" - Beth & Dustin rescued them from a family who's son was allergic to them. Definitely a noble act, there aren't many who would rescue puppies that look like this - ha!

Lee & Laura are building a house on their land, with a lake. We went to check on the progress on Saturday & let me tell you that it's AMAZING! Most all of the wood used throughout the house is from the trees on the land, and the beams are from tree trunks, which makes it feel rustic & eccentric at the same time! It's so nice & we can't wait to stay when it's finished! Here are some pictures...
burying the electric fence for the dog pound - aka 7 (soon to be 8) dogs in the family. we buried 4000 feet of wire - that's a LOT!

the den - love the fireplace. check out all of the wood planks...
another of the den - the dining table will go by the windows & overlook the back porch

Last night we did on of our favorite things in Camden - we played Mexican Train Dominoes & Scattergories. Oh, how much fun these games are when we're together! It was such a relaxing weekend. Thank you Lee & Laura for letting us all visit!
