On July 25, we took a break.

Our IBARJ Summer Retreat had been scheduled back when we thought we would have been moved in by now.  So we cleaned up the place.  Some of our furniture had been delivered but it was kept on the front porch (sunroom) since we really weren't finished with the woodwork and the carpeting wasn't down yet. So, we just used folding chairs, and lawn chairs because the 40 of us spent most of the day outside. It was a BEAUTIFUL day.   But it sure was fun showing off how much of the house we DO have completed.

From the dining room  through the kitchen... Check out the woodwork that is completed around the bathroom door.  And the "Welcoming Window"

Upstairs bath - very excited about how Floyd painted the walls to match the shower curtain!

Floyd does this using a feather duster.  :-)  Looks even better in person.

Geraniums looked great at the well.

Hanging baskets help to take our eyes away from the Yews that will soon be yanked out.
