I thought I I was making serious headway on unpacking before the second shipment came two Fridays ago. And I was wrong. The second shipment was nearly all boxes. My garage is overloaded. But, the girls start school on the 23rd so I should be able to make some serious headway then.
I finally got around to uploading a few pictures. The house was a spec job by the builder as they try to finish out the neighborhood. There are only about 10 lots left in our section. I didn't have a ton of say in tile/carpet/paint choices since most of it was already done. I did get them to paint the study, put up blinds on every window and some extra ceiling fans throughout the house. As a bonus, they painted the girl's rooms the color of our choosing (pastel blue for Ellie and lilac for Campbell.) Unbeknownst to me, they had some extras planned for the house; The paneling on the bar in the kitchen and the glass cabinet to the left of the fridge space. The paneling looked awesome builder pictures that I saw. I was not sold on the glass cabinet until I saw it in person.
These are not my best work. I was running around taking pictures as the movers were getting ready to start unloading. Here are some interior shots:
Breakfast nook: One of the builder's reps picked the country green color and it really works. The wainscotting was a builder bonus and it looks fantastic.
Kitchen: You can see the glass cabinet and all the paneling. There is no white/pale line around the walls. I'm not sure why that happened
The study: Yes, that room is burnt orange. Hook 'em Horns!
The family room: There's a formal(ish) living room down stairs by the kitchen. This one upstairs has turned into a media room. I got it wired with speakers in the ceiling and a subwoofer. My TV is on the wall. It looks great.
