We have lots of family coming in from out of town this month, so before Chris and I skip town ourselves tomorrow (we were invited to America's Mart in Atlanta!--will anyone else be there?), we spent yesterday finishing up the main floor bedroom at our cabin (that we actually only half painted and threw a […]
