A Clean, Well-Lighted Place

As I am stuck at home with an ear infection (You heard me right - and if you are wondering, I am not an 18 month old. I am a 30 year old man) and I just don't feel like watching one more episode of Make Me A Supermodel I thought I would give you, gentle reader a tour of the Hillsboro Home.

Here, again, is the outside. I see lots of plants that I won't know how to take care of...














When you come in the front door, to your right is the living room with the loverly bay windows. We hope this room will someday house my wi
fe's baby grand piano in turquoise. (Ok it won't really be turquoise. I just liked the sound of that.)














On the other side of the living room is the dining room. It needs a new light fixture, but it has a great big window. And why do people carpet dining rooms? We will be getting some sort of cleanable rug for this room. Come over, have dinner with us! (We just bought new Global Bazaar plates from Target (on sale!) so that we have enough place settings.)















Here is the eat-in kitchen. It has a gas-range (yeah!) and is clean and new. This is first time that we have cupboards that are younger than us. We like the tile, too.















Here is our little family room off of the kitchen. The gas fireplace seems nice, but we have one now and we haven't used it but once in the last two years. I am sure we will spend lots of time in here watching our stories after the kids go to bed.
















When you come upstairs, there are 4 bedrooms (not pictured as they just look a lot like bedrooms and our nice master. This is also the first time we have had a master bedroom, too. With our own bedroom and closet and everything!! YEAH!!! Don't you like their bedroom set, by the way? I am afraid ours will not look that cool...it needs a little updating.















Here is the backyard. It isn't huge, but it has a big nice deck (there will be many, many BBQs there) and a hot tub.














So there you have it. It will obviously be much more thrilling in real life - so come and visit!!
