Finally, a picture of the dining room

Here is a picture of the dining room... we replaced the light fixture (previously track lighting).

And, a picture of Sophie, just for fun.

This and that

People keep complaining about my failure to update the blog, so here you go... just a little of this and a little of that.

Christmas at the Curran household (i.e., Bruce and Pam's).

Sophie and Charles being cute.

The living room minus Christmas decorations.

The basement: a major work in progress.

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

Our plans to cut down a Christmas tree were thwarted when Charles managed to injure his shoulder and knee Saturday morning. Thankfully, with the help of my parents, I found a beautiful pre-cut tree shipped all the way from Seattle!

Saturday Project

We worked on our guest bathroom today... painted, replaced the light fixture and the mirror. Now, we just need to replace the carpet with tile and get rid of the ugly laminate countertop... but, those are projects for another day.

A few more pics

The guest bedroom (and more often Sophie's). Thanks to Bruce, it's now painted antique white rather than white white.

One of four new ceiling fans - early Christmas gifts from Bruce and Pam.

Happy Halloween!

Since we closed on October 30th, we passed out candy to trick-or-treaters at the new house Friday night. Sophie didn't appreciate her pumpkin costume quite as much as the children did...

Thanks to the help of Bruce and Tim, our first big project is completed. The master bedroom has been transformed from stark white to an inviting green!

Nothing much

Well, it's getting closer to closing and we finally managed to get a picture of the exterior. Also, check out Sophie's new raincoat... perfect for the rainy days we've been having.
