So What Now....2 Months Later

Well, it's been two months since we moved in (hard to believe) and we love being here. During the Fall for Greenville Festival last month we walked downtown several times and we have walked down to the library and to eat at some neighborhood restaurants. As far as inside goes, we have now almost completely finished Lura's office, hung all our bedroom closet doors, hung the rest of our living room and kitchen lights, had a fence installed, planted some things, and stained and sealed the foyer floor. We are now starting to think about finishing other projects like the light panels around the fireplace, the built-ins for the TV, DVDs, books, and CDs, the garage (a monster task) and the downstairs guest room and bathroom. Of course there's always the yard, but with no rain out there anywhere, it's hard to plant things. Even with our rainbarrels, which have lasted for a long time, without being refilled, even us earthy types have to use city water. Although we did just start that this past week and it hasn't rained in about a month.

We are enjoying our house, to say the least. Not a day goes by that we don't look around and feel very blessed to have come to this point. I think our favorite parts are the kitchen (lots of space and storage), the porch (awesome!), and our bedroom (a nice haven at the end of the day). All these other projects though are going to give us new favorite things. I almost get giddy thinking about the future upstairs room (MAN CAVE!!!) to say nothing of those rooms which will have kids in them someday. We are very happy and wanted to share some photos since our last update. Stay in touch and stop by sometime!
