Uncle Keith & Aunt Dea's Lake House

So we ran from Irene and went to Bracey, VA near Lake Gaston, where my Aunt and Uncle just built a gorgeous lake house!  It was like a long vacation!  My husband joined me on Wednesday after work, so we even got two days to spend together :-)  It was nice and we owe my Uncle and Aunt a lot!!

Here are some pics of the inside, I forgot to take one of the outside :-(

  

 

Thanks again to Uncle Keith and Aunt Dea for sharing your beautiful new home to us!
