Finally moved in.

We did move in on August 4, but it has taken us all this time to unpack, have new furniture delivered and setup, and just get acclimated to a comfortable new environment. Here you can see how some of our rooms turned out.

Here’s our living room looking down from the top of the front stairway. We have a few of our previous furniture and a few new pieces.

Our dining room is very much the same with our favorite Scandinavian dining room set. The French doors take you onto our screened porch.

Our kitchen reflects the way we want to eat and prepare foods. The peninsula offers a great place to kibitz during meal preparation, and also a nice place to get a meal ready. At the rear is our home office and entrance to the garage.

We also have a wonderful view from our porch into our dining room and beyond into the living room.

So come on down to visit with us, anytime. We’d love to have you over.

Finishing touches

Sorry for the delay getting this blog out, but we have been fighting many dry days and keeping the grass seed watered morning and night.

We have occupancy and are moving in tomorrow; with lots of carloads of boxes and items done ahead of time to minimize the van loads.

Here are some finishing touches on the house that is now completely done.

The front door is complete with stain and polyurethane. Inside we have the living room with fireplace, the kitchen and office viewed from the dining room, and the dining room with French doors onto the screened porch.

There is also the completed staircase to the loft and 2 second floor bedrooms and bath.

We are particularly pleased with our lighting choices including kitchen and hall pendants, as well as numerous recessed lights.
