| I wanted to show you some finished rooms in our new place. We have been here three weeks and we have so much accomplished. I took down the mirror I had up over the mantel because I found this cool old window piece. I think it looks so much nicer and blends better. I will have videos at the end of this post so you can see the rooms and how they flow. It is hard to capture rooms in single pics. |

| This is the back of the kitchen. Still a work in progress. As you can see in the right corner still no counter tops. Ugh!!!! Hopefully that will be done soon. Since I do not have a fancy camera or pay for fancy editing my pics are not always the greatest and really do not do these rooms justice. They are not washed out and faded but pretty and sun filled bright rooms. I need to be a bragging grandmother for a minute. The video below is our granddaughter Charlotte reading her poem at the 911 remembrance ceremony at her school. With her grandpa and dad being firefighters this meant a lot for her to be picked to read a poem. |
Have a great week everyone. Terry is out of town this week for a fire chief's conference and well deserved rest lol! I will have the bedroom next for you to see.
Hugs,
Kris

Love the videos, Kris! That scale is a true treasure, now I want one. I'm so impressed with your progress. We are still finishing things up from our renovations we started two years ago. I need you to come here to whip my decorating tail into shape!! Your granddaughter is so sweet. That was such a difficult day for so many, it's nice to see it still remembered all around the country and by people of all ages. Bless her...xo
ReplyDeleteYour new home is looking gorgeous, Kris. I know you must be so excited about your counter tops!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Kris! Another new home but your hard work snd gorgeous white on white, soft decor makes everything look gorgeous! You don't need editing, the lighting is perfect. Love the videos, grandkids are the brst, I have eight now! I'm trying to find time to get back into blogging. Just visiting friends now. 😊

ReplyDeleteKris-It is looking great so far. Can't wait for you to get your countertops in-that is so frustrating to wait that long!
ReplyDeleteYou have pulled everything together beautifully so far. AND you have a few days to yourself to do things that you want to do. Or---I could send John down to take up some of your 'free' time.
Charlotte is so sweet. What an honor to read that on 911. The first time I saw her she was just a few weeks old and in her little carrier on the table at the restaurant. Can't believe where the years have gone!
I am SOOO glad you love your new home...and you CAN'T move again because I am out of room to change the V addresses on 'your page' in my address book. lol. (Most of my friends have three lines on a page- You have your own page....lol

I'm glad you showed the videos so we could a grasp of the footprint. I love it, and still can't believe all you've accomplished. I'm surprised you haven't talked Terry into crafting your countertops himself, lol. There's pretty much nothing you two can't do! I love that new hanging scale, Kris.
ReplyDeleteCharlotte is adorable. What a sweet memory you've captured.
Love the video! I can't get over how much you finished. Love the scale and the place is coming together.

It really coming together. Love the old window frame and scale. Those old pieces add so much character! Hope your counters get there soon. It’d be driving me crazy!

your photos are always excellent. I love the progress. (where are you hiding all the clutter?) Those white dressers are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour grand daughter is a delight, this brought tears to my eyes, I know that pride, Kris. The videos you made are great!!! Everything looks so inviting
Kris, I am amazed at how fast the house is coming together. I love all of your pretty decorations for fall. I love your new home. I hope you and Terry will finally be able to settle down there and enjoy it for many years.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking great Kris! I'm amazed at how much you two have done in just 3 weeks.. it already looks so lived in and homey! I love the little touches of peach color for the Fall holidays. Take care and have a good week! Marilyn
ReplyDeleteKris, it is coming together and looking fabulous! You and Terry have worked so hard to accomplish all of this in three weeks. I am loving your new home and your signature style is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the updates on your new home. Everything is coming together just like I thought it would since you and Terry are the creative team behind all this gorgeousness. Love the pumpkin on the scale hanging in the kitchen. It's little touches like that bring personality to your home. It was wonderful that your sweet granddaughter read the poem. xoxo
ReplyDeleteVery nice! You are pulling this all together so nicely! Boy I didn’t know countertop material could be so delayed!

ReplyDeleteKris I am so pleased that you have got this beautiful new home! It must be an absolute joy for you to have some outside space again and more garage space. You and Terry have achieved so much in such a short space of time. Take care lovely lady! Gilly, Ledbury UK
ReplyDeleteKris, your house is so lovely and roomy. I hope you don’t move anymore. You and Terry have accomplished so much in a short amount of time. I feel good to have extra space to move around and decorate. How special for Charlotte to speak regarding 911. Precious. Xo
