Open house open house

A couple weeks ago, we had our first party at DGE. We called it an Open House Open House, since our house is still "open." It was family and a couple friends, and we had a lot of fun. It was a warm but not hot Friday evening, and we served wine, beer and a light dinner (Chicken and Peach Salad with Goat Cheese, Tomato Feta Tart and Rocky Road Bars). We "toured" our house (took oh, about 5 minutes) and then noshed in the shade of the veggie garden. I hope it's the first of MANY fun gatherings we have at the new house.

Our progress has slowed some as we've had a lot of other stuff going on in life. But here are photos, taken a couple weeks ago, that show the house (mostly interior) as it is today. Next up is Roofing, HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, Siding, then all the interior stuff. It's going to be awhile . . .

Does this look like a good size for the shower?



Yay! No more ladder to get to the 2nd floor!
"Bonus" area, someday to be craft room














































It really feels great to be able to walk around the rooms and feel like we did ok with the design and layout, and try to imagine what it will feel like to live here. I'm one lucky girl.
