Pictures!!!!

I know it seems like the only thing I blog about is our house but really that is the only exciting thing going on right now. And I think it is very exciting!!! So here are some pictures of the inside of the house.

Here is the outside of the house again. They got a little far on the siding. It is so fun to finally see what the finish product is going to look like.

You can't really see much because of the sun but this is Brandon's garage. I guess even if the sun was not there, there is not very much to see. :)
This is one side of the Master Bath. My beautiful deep bathtub in the middle and then each of our closets on the sides. There is also two sinks, a shower and toilet room but I could not get it all in on a camera phone. But I have to say I think this is one of the things that I am most excited for!!!! finally my own bathroom again that isn't all the way across the house. It will be like heaven on earth.
So this picture is side ways but just turn your head and you will see it the right way. This is one side of one of our closets. Can you guess if it is mine or Brandon's???? Every guy at work that has seen this closet tells Brandon, "Man, your wife has a lot of shoes!" and then Brandon, as manly as he can, tells them, "this is not my wife's closet it is mine." Nobody seems to believe him but truly, it is. He has so many shoe racks it cracks me up. But for a man with a lot of shoes, like Brandon, this is the perfect closet.
This picture is sideways too but this is standing in the living room looking at the front door.
Here I am standing in the front entry looking into the living room. Not too exciting yet but everytime I look at it, I can just picture all my furniture in there!!!! YAY!!!
This is the living room also but this is looking towards the dining room and the kitchen. Sorry the lighting is so bad. We have so many windows in our house and it was really bright outside.
Here is looking into the kitchen. We are hoping to have cabinets by the end of this week.
This is our little computer nook. We are going to have have a build in desk and cabinets so I think it should be very nice.
Here is just the inside view of the kitchen. Where the plumbing is coming out of the wall is where the sink will be and then the dishwasher will be on the left hand side and then cabinets on the right hand side. We are going to have a raised bar so you won't be able to see the sink and stuff from the other side.
I didn't realize I took so many sideways picture sorry. But this is standing in the guest bath looking down the hall. I don't know why but I have always loved hallways so I made sure to put one in our house.
This is one of the guest rooms. I love the bay window in it but I am not sure how well a bed will fit in there ??? I guess Rod and Kathy will have to see cause hopefully in a couple weeks this will be there room!!!!
This picture is just to show the paint. You can't really tell the paint colors in the pictures. But we decided we did not want white walls. We had white walls in our last house and I hated them but we never got around to painting them. So we decided we would just start off with a different color. The color we choose was Gobi Desert. I was a little nervous cause on the paint card it looked so dark but then we we got it on the walls it was perfect. I absolutely love it!!! We were going to try and keep things easy and cost down by painting everything the same color. The walls, ceilings, baseboard it was all going to be this color. But then once they did that, it just so boring in the house so we decided to paint all the baseboards and the door trims. So we went and bought a gallon and paint and went to town. We still wanted to keep cost down so we just decided we would do it ourselves. Let me tell you, it is taking forever!!!!! Brandon figured it would not be that big of a deal cause when he working he is the painter so this is what he does all day long. but now that is taking every night and Saturdays, he has decided he should of just had the company do it so he could at least be getting paid!! But is is a little too late. We are hoping a couple late nights this week and we should have it all done.
I didn't get a picture of everything but I got the highlights. The basement looks that same as it always has and it will until we get some more money saved up to build in the rooms. Someday it will happen.
Well that is it for now. I better get to work. I will do my best to keep you all up to date on things.

It looks like the house has a lot of character--I love it. Our house is a box. Four walls in every room. And I am drooling over Brandon's closet. Seriously...drooling...
