The New Room

The new room is finally done. It isn't completely, obviously from the pics we need curtains, new furniture and speakers so we can get the old ones off the floor. But hey good enough for us to sit in there and enjoy and enjoy we do. We love the fireplace. Maddie packs all her homework in by the hearth. Ryder loves to snuggle and watch movies.

Going to the gym, when he has "it in his plan for the day"
Chasing his big sister around with sticks and swords
To Pummel
Hiding in the new cabinets
"Snuggling"
Giving mom the pinchies, which is using my hand like a blankie to rub the soft skin between the index and thumb, I know a little odd but cute too

Personality Test!







Take this test!


You're a bold, confident orange. A warm, powerful color that indicates a strong, welcoming personality, orange is the mark of people who are social and extroverted by nature. Vibrant, with an upbeat attitude, you have a bright, inviting demeanor. Energetic and fun-loving, you're a real friend-magnet. Your easy charm and unassuming manner make you the sort of person people want to meet and get to know better. Well-rounded and fun to be around, you enjoy helping others, so it's no surprise that orange also symbolizes attraction. Orange is an extraordinary color — for an extraordinary person.

Still under construction

How are we still living in this? :) I ask myself this daily. This is the room that was going to be done a week before Christmas. Excuse me, what day did you say it was. (I have no idea how I got this to underline and so I don't know how to turn it off) So then last I heard my cabinets were to be delivered last Friday, Jan 9th. I am still awaiting the delivery of those bad boys. That is the last big thing holding this up. Carpet is scheduled to be layed Saturday but as you can see with no cabinets even in the house that isn't going to happen. Hmmm....
We still have wrought iron fencing for outside to be put up, stucco to be fixed, new railings to be put in on the inside. Carpet in on the main floor.
Scott keeps teasing me when I tell him the date the contractor tells me whatever will be done. Scott says yeah it will be wrapped up by mid March. At this point I am starting to believe him.
At least our contractor, Brad is very nice and it is hard to get upset with him. (Maybe that is why we are still living in this...) Just a thought .. :)
