Merry Christmas From The Trexlers!

Merry Christmas!
We are looking forward to our first Christmas in Virginia! We hope you all have a safe and wonderful Christmas!
Love,
Dave and Diane






Trim Work

Dad and Di painted trim for weeks (seriously!). But now it's up and it looks great!


The trim was definitely a finishing touch.







"The First Thanksgiving!"

Thanksgiving was at the Trexler's new house this year! We had a great time together and enjoyed some fantastic food!

Aunt Terri Comes to VA!

Aunt Terri was in town for the long weekend and we celebrated with a turkey dinner.
Of course, no meal would be complete without chocolate pie!!!

Erika and Aunt Terri


Zach was announcing that the pie is being served.



It was the perfect night to sit on the back porch and enjoy the campfire....until we heard a bobcat screeching! Suddenly, the living room seemed more inviting!



David, Dad and Di got the base trim painted and installed this past week. It looks amazing!







Dad painted the front door and the french doors! They look very stylish!

More Lights????

Just when you think this house has enough lights, David puts up something else! This morning it was time to put up the lights over the kitchen table. David wanted to wait until they moved in and had some time to decide exactly where they wanted the table.
Even the home owners agree, it looks GREAT!








It didn't take long and Dad and David were on to another project! :)





This One is for Bruce!!!

Since he paid for the name, I figured he should see how his room has turned out...so far. This "plaque" is beautifully displayed in the window of the room. (Apparently, I have nothing else to do but attempt to make my uncle smile!)


Diane is using this book for guests of the Trexler House to journal in during their stay. So far, the Olcotts, Rebecca and Zachary have had an opportunity to stay as special guests.



This is part of the office.



This painting, from their friends at the Alliance Church in Lafayette, looks PERFECT in this room! This will be one of their treasures, always! Just like their friends back in NY.




New Furniture!

The new furniture in the living room is so cozy! The cushions are a small checkered print. The pictures do not do it justice. It is beautiful! David's recliner is still at the house so that Dad can sleep comfortably.


The master bedroom has really come together.






Dad and Di also built the cabinet for the bathroom and put in the shelves. It didn't take long to fill! :)
