House Watch 5

Howdy House Watchers!  So here we are... about 1 month until we close.  It looks like we (the Amsler's) will be going first and then once the O'Connell's sell their house, they will join us.  We are hoping this is sooner than later, but everything in due time right?  Right now they are painting and let me tell you that is a tough thing to do.  Using a limited amount of colors for 5000 sq. feet and not having any idea what we are going to do with some of the rooms.  Phew... i think we did pretty good in our selections.  Our builder is really awesome and has a really good eye for all this.  They started on the upstairs (as you will see) and this week they are doing the downstairs.  Then they are going to stain all the hardwood and I think countertops are coming in!!  It is all coming together!!! 

We registered the kids for school.  And so far, I am impressed and feel that is a great fit for us.  The kids met the secretary (nicest lady) and they got to see where the bus will drop them off.  Yes, I said BUS!!!  And can I just tell you, I am really excited to sit on the front porch with my 2 babies and wave bye bye to my 2 big babies!  The kids are excited about it too.  They will go together in the morning, but they will be on their own for the ride home.  I am sure they will make a bus buddy some day!  The secretary said it will be about a 10 minute ride.  (the school is 5 minutes away) Also, the kindergarteners and 1st graders are in the same "wing" so that makes me feel good too.  There is a huge music room and a huge art room.  I think the kids are going to love it!!! 

Beware of the pregnancy picture of me... he he he he


This is the ceiling of the screen porch.
Pretty huh?

Our side yard.

Lily came to check the place out!

Cute Rowan!  And the staircase is
stained.  it is so nice!

They added this shelf thing upstairs.  It kinda
looks like a tic tac toe board in the pic, but in real
life, it is really nice. 

This is the basement. whoa.

More basement. 

and another view...

This is the east side of the house. 

"the shot" as we call it. 

They leveled it and spread top soil.  NIce huh?

Not sure if it was clear to you all how the
garages were set up. 

Staircase stain and the interesting
built in seat in the foyer.  It is growing on me.

This is the master bedroom closet.  Jim's "office"
will be that space over there with the window.

To the left is Jim's space.

Papa and Rowan in the baby's room -

The bonus room.  The wall way back there will
be a greenish color.
