Welcome to Stepford!












Last night we had the first walk-through of our house. We were supposed to be looking for things that need to be fixed under the builder's warranty. Some of us did what we were supposed to do, while some of us ran around deciding on paint colors, placing furniture, and lounging in the tub. I'll let you be the judge of who was doing what.



The house is very bland and very beige right now, but that will change. Unlike most of the other houses we looked at, this one is in move-in condition. All it needs is for us to add our own style and personality to the place, which means that in a few weeks, we should have it looking like a REALLY BIG college dorm room.

Duh, I just realized that if I click on the picture of the kitchen...it takes me to more pictures! I have no practical life skills whatsoever.

I think that it just needs some shoes.

Great house, Danielle! Now you and Tony can share bathroom time - he can just close the door!

I'm jealous. Mrs. Malone and I are currently searching for the West Coast equivalent.

Dave Matthews still sucks.

The first thing I did, the first time I was alone in my first house, was take a bath. In the dark (no electricity), no towels, no soap, and I put the same clothes back on when I was done, but it was one of the best baths of my life! It was barely an hour after the former owners left. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
