N & N's new house

We were up early today. First stop, an early morning walk through the rose gardens at MCC. The roses were beautiful and in full bloom. After breakfast quiches at Mimi's Cafe, we were off to exchange services with Nate. Glen helped him spray his weed crop and I finished my pantry shelf project, then Nate came and helped us clean out our garage and took a load to DI. I am now officially parked in the garage once again!

These pictures of N & N's house are for Janae in far off St. Kitts. The small window is a formal dining area (their office area) and the big window is the living room with a floor to ceiling white rock fireplace. These are adjoining spaces so it is a nice large area with a vaulted ceiling. In the basement (currently without carpet) there is a large family room with fireplace under the LR and a separate space that Nichelle will use as a craft room under the formal dining area.

This is the back of the house. L to R, master bedroom window with a large window well underneath for two bedrooms in the basement. Patio window is their kitchen window and the middle door leads to the eat-in dining area of kitchen. The next door is to a big storage area for outdoor equipment, etc., and on the backside of this storage area is a spacious shelved (which I covered with contact paper :) pantry which is accessed from the kitchen area. They have lots of storage!

There are several fruit trees in the backyard as well as this massive tree. The baby's room is located between the MB and LR. The stairwell goes down between the kitchen and formal DR. There is a third bedroom downstairs under the baby's room as well as a large bathroom/laundry room. They really did get a lot of square footage for their money and with time they will get all their projects completed. It certainly beats the little two bedroom apartment!

Just caught up on all your pics and news! Loved the Reunion pics and Easter hunt photos! Seriously, you were a "party" house this month!! I feel like I missed out! Hope you survived. Sounds like you need a little vacation to stay in Murrieta and sleep in! We really do have empty rooms!
