House update as of 12-17-10

I think the phrase we have heard most often is, "It is a really big house!". It is bigger than some in the neighborhood, but what makes it look so big is:

1. It is tall - we built it as tall as the City of West University would allow. This gave us the ability to have 10 foot ceilings downstairs and 9 foot ceilings upstairs plus attic space.
2. The big side trees (ash and pecan) are gone. We will replace them with new trees.
3. The brick wall is not up yet, once that is built it will help balance everything.

Matt's side of the master closet.

Lane's closet - the shoe/toy/sweater shelf.

Lane's desk. Reese has one exactly like it in her room.

The kitchen - a brick arch will go around the range in between the cabinets.

The mudroom/entry from the garage.

The kitchen - this is the opposite side of the range and it looks into the great room.

The trim guys expect to take 4-6 weeks to finish the cabinets, baseboards, window trim, etc. They are making nice progress!
