gail and jt's new place

This post is really for my mom and Rachel so they could see pictures, but everyone enjoy!

This is Gail and JT's new house that they just bought (my aunt and uncle). This weekend they drove in from Virginia to unload some things. They aren't moving permanently yet; it's going in stages.

For the past 15 years they have lived in a house that has been around since the Civil War. They did work projects on it throughout the years, and are wanting to do something similar once they retire and come back to Texas. They wanted an old house with a lot of land out in the country somewhere.

wardrobe that we put back together

apparently it comes apart so that the planks of wood can stack,

that way it can transport easily in the covered wagon

(no joke, that's how old it is)

There are a lot of projects to do. It makes me think of that show on HGTV, Sarah's House, when she renovates that old farm house room by room.

The house is outside of Sealy, a little more than an hour outside of Houston. We were there for about five hours this afternoon, excluding drive time, helping out where we could and enjoying spending time with family.
