The House is becoming a Home

 We started off Monday with a bang!  More lumber

was delivered, the inspector came by and approved the

framing, and the air conditioning/heating guy came by

for the winter service.  Not to mention the neighbors

are have doors replaced so they have several construction

trucks parked in front of their home.

The House is becoming a Home!

 The blinds are up on all the windows and the bed is now

the right size.  We need to hang the curtains [those that are

draped over the lower part of the bed frame].  We also hung

some pictures and a mirror over the weekend.

 I've been pulling Christmas crap stuff from the

storage unit.  This is a major project to get done so

that the house is decorated prior to move-in.

 Derby at the top of the stairs.

 This is the LAST year for this tree.  It's about

19 years old and the branches are falling apart.

We got our monies worth out of this tree

and I'm going to start looking for a pre-lite tree

now.  I'm thinking tall and narrow which

would actually look pretty in the dining room 

with a few simple glass balls.  It may be a two tree

Christmas in the new place but I'll never catch up to our

friends JoAnn & Lloyd.  I think they put up maybe

6 or 7 trees to celebrate the holiday season.

The westies are getting use to being in this house.

They are watching the guys lay the decking material.  

I'll take more decking pictures later ... now it's time

for my to get back to work.
