The HOUSE!!!

Okay, first of all I didn't take pictures of everything yet(a bedroom and bathroom in the basement are still a mess) and the garage which we love has tons of storage, is kind of a temporary dumping ground. So, I am going to try and walk you through the pictures as they come up in the slide show. First, you walk in and it is a open entry and the formal living room is on your right and all the bedrooms are to your left with 2 baths. Straight ahead is the Great room and a banister to the downstairs. I love this open floor plan and that everything is on just 2 levels. I have a huge pantry off of the kitchen and good size laundry room too. The formal living is great, vaulted ceilings and beautiful mountain views. Mercedes Room was the first room I finished because I had everything but the dresser and the area rug(which is not in the pictures, it's a 6'round white shag.) I actually bought the little pink chair and ottoman before she was born and it has been in the box up until a month ago, she loves is! It was a lot of fun to finally do a girl room and my inspiration came from her blessing dress, which my mom made(thank you!) Christian's Room has a mattress on the floor for now, I have a simple black modern bunk bed and dresser coming, I will post it when I finish it. The Master bedroom and bath with a balcony off it that connects to the Great Room. The guest bath is in the process of being finished as you can probably tell. The basement is a similar layout, Family Room, 3 bedroom, 1 bath. I made the Family Room the kids playroom and it has been great, they love it and it's nice not having the toys all over the main floor. The Guest Room or as Christian calls it Mallory's Room (my sister/weekend nanny, we love you) Joe's office and another bedroom and bathroom. So, that's about it. There are a lot of things we want to do, paint, change out hardware and lighting, and design lots of fun stuff. We are loving the house, the location and the ward. We are so blessed to be here!!!
