MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!

We love you all and wish everyone a very happy holiday.

To our family in Montana and Idaho: WE MISS YOU!!!

Jason and I are really starting to get excited now. We were excited before, but now it's feeling real...the end is in sight!! We have a tentative walk-through date scheduled for January 8, 2008. That will be the day we go through the house with our blue tape and look for anything that needs to be fixed - after that it will be all ours!!

We're in the stage now where any progress they make is visable - lights being hung, cabinets installed. This morning we went over to check on the countertops and they look AMAZING!! So far we're finding that the choices we made have really coordinated well. The last "obstacle" will be to see how the flooring looks. That will probably be sometime next week.

Here are a few pictures of our new home. We can't wait to move in and start having GUESTS!! So come visit us!!!!!!!!

The kitchen as seen from the dining room area.

A little bit closer.

The breakfast bar looking into the living/dining area.

The living room and our corner fireplace. Probably going to be my favorite place in the house. =)

Our little dining area and sliding door which leads into the back yard. Eventually we'll have a nice deck and a hot tub out there.

The Hallway leading the bedrooms (two on the left), skinny linen closet, guest bathroom and around the corner to the right is the master bedroom & bath.

The entrance.

And our pretty front door. =)

This is where you'll find us. =)

Guess what goes here!Cozy by the fire.

This is for you, Sherry.
