house photos - finally

On Saturday, bright and early, we had a little visitor...



And boy, were we HAPPY to see him!!! GRASS, finally!!! A semi truck with 18 pallets of sod, just for us. And those 18 didn't even do all of our yard. They got the side yard done by the street, the whole front yard, and part of the back yard. Another semi will be coming out, possibly this coming weekend.



Here's one of the guys in action...




And here is the finished product, in front. Will take a few weeks for the sod squares to mesh together, but it's already so much better than dirt!!!

And Chris was quite a happy camper this weekend, as he was able to upgrade his living room tv. He went from a 38" thing that stuck out into the room too much...




to a 50" flat screen plasma that hugs the wall more...



New stand and all. Really changes up how the living room looks and gives us more room in there. Plus, it takes up more room on the wall, and doesn't look so awkward. We are not going back to Circuit City for a LONG time now!!!

And now, without further ado, here are some house photos. Remember, no room is completely done yet, but you'll get the idea from these.



The stone fireplace mantle...


The guest bathroom...


The master bathroom...


The dining nook...


The plant ledge above our kitchen pantry...


A view of the whole kitchen...


Our bedroom...still a work in progress, but moving right along...


My dressing table in the back of our wraparound master closet...


My chotchke area in our closet. I love to surround myself with all the things that I love and that make me happy when I look at them. This is one area, there are two others in the closet as well...


More of the master closet...


And this is Aspen's room...

So, that gives you an idea of how things are coming along. Seems to be moving slowly, but we can't buy all the new stuff at once. So it will be a long process. We'll do it all as we can...
