Oh man, Oh man, Sarah! That is looking very sweet indeed!
Are you about psyched, or what?
Did they give you an expected date when they would be ready to do the interior finishing?

I'm getting there! I am so glad it's starting to look like a house. As for the dates...no one is sure, we all just want it finished around June first.

Funny you should mention closets...after our chat, I went back over the plans. As drawn, it seems to be lacking in storage! So, we revised a little, hopefully enough!

Wow, If I had a house that big I'd be in heaven. I'd never be bored(I love cleaning). It's so nice to start to see it all come together. Are you picking out colours yet?

Now, who wants to talk about paint colors? That's Rachel's field of expertise. She can show me the weirdest color chips...and I think she's lost her mind. But, when she's finished, it always looks so good! What colors do you have in mind?

I'm thinking of using the same colors I used in this house and adding a few to the mix...
Right now I have green, a brown/grey, blue, and light light purple....
I want to do at least one wall in the dining room with a deep red, and the master bedroom and bathroom in tropical blues and greens...

That looks so awesome Sarah!
Love the idea of red in the dining area. It would be awesome if you could find a big curio or china display cabinet in there for Mike's firetrucks since they go so well with the color. And a very unique feature in a place where you would not find it.
Are you planning on the deeper tropical shades in the bedroom/bathroom?
Also I was thinking about it some last night and you had said before you like a clean look in the kitchen, what about keeping the walls white but paining the ceiling one of your colors? Is there enough of a break to do that or would you have to do the same to the family room and laundry?
