OK OK....FOR THOSE THAT KEEP ASKING FOR PICTURES OF THE HOUSE.

When my kids asked me which house we made the offer on...I said "The Ugly house" .

So that is how it was known in our family.  This is what they call a reverse walkout in

Canada so actually this is the back of the house but it is our front.  You don't see

many like this.  It is sure nothing like the Texas homes but it has a ton of potential

and I LOVE the views!

This is the dining room.  If you look close you can see the whole in the ceiling from

the leak we had in the tub the day after we moved in.  Welcome Home!  :)

This is what Stacy B. called decorating at it's finest!  She put this together and it

looks great!  I am not sure what I would have done without her help.  Honestly,

she breathed life back into me.  I was so spent from everything that had gone on. 

It was so fun to get the juices flowing again.  I am sure we would be the number one

reality show if they filmed us working together.  We  bantered back and forth and

laughed a ton.  Just for the record..If I said alittle to the left, Stacy would say no,

a little to the right.  I noticed that she would finally see it my way but it added to

the fun! (Oh I can't wait for Stacy to read this! :)





The mirror wall.  Honestly this is one of my favorite things in my house. Not only

do the mirrors all have a story but Stacy's Mom Tish started this idea and she,

Stacy and I all have a mirror wall in our homes.  Mine is the BEST!  OK  Stacy's

is pretty great to.  



The Family Room

The view from upstairs.  One thing that I love about the house is that I can stand

upstairs on the landing in my room and see all the way downstairs. 

 I know exactly what is going on the house.

The kitchen table. I love the view out my back window.

This is as you walk in the front door. 

Looking out my kitchen window

My bedroom.  No I do not have the bedding I want yet.  It is a work in progress. 

I just haven't found "IT".  OH Please do not tell Stacy I  haven't found

anything yet... she may loose sleep over it! ;) 

Steve's home office.  It is still a work in progress as well.

Notice the cow picture that MBB painted. I want to get a W to hang over it. 
 Love it!

The apartment.  One of the things we liked about the house is this apartment. 

It is great for company or if we ever need to have Mom come and stay for a while. 

The apartment needs updated but it has it own kitchen and  washer and dryer. 

Come Visit! Just be mindful that Stacy calls this "Her Quarters".

This is my view from my front steps.  This truly is my favorite thing about the house. 

 On clear days the mountains are in full view.  It is stunning here.





The back of the house

OK starting right now.....The FIRST person that comes for a visit gets to take

this wonderful billiard light fixture home.  I have a couple of beer plaques that

I will throw in just for fun!   The homes here are so expensive and not at all as

beautiful as Texas homes....but there are some great things here as well. 

I think (HOPE) we will learn to love it here.
