The house is still unfolding and spreading her little wings day by day. Although we’re all moved in and starting to settle, there are still things the builder is working on to make our house a home.

For starters, the siding was finished this week

The built-in’s were put into place yesterday – It took quite a team to install them.

Hubby was upstairs guiding the electricians as to what direction the wires needed to go.

Unfortunately the carpenter had to rip off the window trim to get the left side of the cabinet into place.

They were able to ease the unit into place nice and easy, with the trim removed. The builder hopes to have the painters here tomorrow to have the unit painted.

While the boys played, I fiddled with some of my favorite pieces of pottery from South Korea.

This is a lovely double walled piece.

A grape vase that I love so much. I still remember the long day trip, (in South Korea) with a bunch of girls, where I fell in love with this design.

And this matching lid – I still need to find the missing pot for this yet.

A peak out the breakfast bar window this morning – I’ve decided not to mess up the trim by adding curtains.

My neighbors fishing early this morning

I love the way the sun rays danced through this tree in the side yard.

As night fell last evening the little vignette glowed in the foyer

The Emperor

And Emperoress

In time, our once empty house will find a home for all the little pretties we’ve collected through the years. I’ll be sharing as we go.
