Is it moving time yet?

Our house is almost done... the toilets flush, the lights turn on and carpet is being installed tomorrow BUT we had a set back in concrete- they didn't make the front steps to code and now we have to wait a whole week more until we can get our permit- grrrr! At least it gives me more time to pack and clean up ( or take a nap :) But here are some pictures of my favorite features in the house...
Here is the house itself with the cute shutters and front light. The front steps are too high to not have a landing so they have to add the landing to it- I wanted one in the first place so I guess it's okay I have to wait another week!
This is the tile backsplash I am very proud of- I got all of the tile for $35 and it turned out so good!
My dining room light- I love it! The kitchen lights all match it, too. I can't resist anything with vines growing on it- maybe I have a love of plants?
I forgot to turn this, sorry. This was my grandma's light. She had it in her bedroom for a long time...yes, the electricians thought I was crazy for putting it in the guest room but it's going to look so cute with all my girl stuff in that room!
My last favorite feature is the playroom in the under-the-stairs closet. It has it's own light and window and I think it will be well used!

Sharlee, I just got your Christmas card today! I love it that you keep a blog, because that's my favorite way to keep up with friends. I'll send you a link to ours. I just have to say that your boys are absolutely adorable. Your house is so cute, too. How exciting!

The house looks great! I love the little playhouse under the stairs, that will be lots of fun for your cute boys!

Looks so good, Shar! I also love your appliances. I drove by it yesterday and they were installing the carpet. I can't wait to see the finished product!

Hi there! Thanks so much for the card and update, now we have your blog and can find you more often! I'm working on a new year's resolution to start one as well since it is now officially the thing:). Good luck with those boys and a new house!!! Joseph was contemplating life back in Utah in our own home...someday:). Keep in touch!

Hurray!! Your house looks so beautiful! I can't wait to visit you soon. Maybe this summer? After our baby is born? I need to put a light in the under the stairs closet. Tyler likes to play camping in there. Too bad he can't go all the way back since all our camping gear is there. Your boys look so handsome in their christmas clothes. love ya!
