Ottos Fun

I haven't shown much of what we are doing this summer, but it has been packed. One of the main things we are doing is working on our summer house (Ottos). This summer it has officially become our house. Andreas' mom and dad have given it to us. We are very thankful for it. However, with a house, we all know comes work! So this summer we are getting rid of bad wood and repainting it all. We will change some windows and maybe some doors, add a wood burning stove and generally make things look nice. Next summer will be the roof and more windows. I am sure that post will be up in a year. We have been to the lakes and the ocean, but there will be more posts to come. Enjoy the pics below.
