The boxes in the walls are in Al's room. His bed will go between them. He wants his room black and grey.

The bookshelves are in the office. Eventually, we'll put a small sofa between the two and a mirror above. The sconces will come out of the sides of the shelves.

It is starting to come together.

Paint begins Monday.

islands

After changing our minds again, we now have two islands. If we had one big island, we would have had a very visible seam down the middle of the countertop.

The pictures are courtesy of Alex. He went out to the house today with Chris.

I'm loving the stone and the brick around the front door. The boys had fun climbing and rolling down the dirt hill. I included a picture of the new school being built. You can see it from our house.

Also, just had to include this picture of Ivan. On our way to bed we checked on the boys. Ivan wasn't in his bed, we couldn't find him anywhere. Finally started opening doors, closets etc... He had shut himself in his closet to sleep. He said it was the wind. Smart boy, lock yourself in the closet so you don't have to hear the windows rattle!

Wow!

That's a lot of cabinets!
