Halfway through and a day!! It's still not too late to link up with Katie's Journey to participate in her 30 day blog challenge!
I have given my dream house a lot of thought a whole page in my journal plus countless hours thinking of every minute detail. Here is 2 outside pictures. I love little things about them both. If you combine them that would be my perfect outside house.
I love the 3 windows here in the above picture. I want that in my house. They're not attached to bedrooms, their just big sky windows so there is always light in the living room. LOVE that. And I love the porch better on this one (except I want the front door to open in the middle of the house like below)
I want a H U G E front yard where there is room to run and play. I want a light cream almost gray colored house with black shudders and a red door. I want a few big trees in the front yard so there is plenty of colorful falling leaves when autumn comes. I want an American Flag hung from my front porch like above! Can't you just picture these combined houses in the fall. With 4 pumpkins carved and painted sitting outside on the front steps, leaves scattered everywhere, the windows are all open and the air is just starting to get crisp. ahh. That is l o v e.
This is my kitchen<3> perfect kitchen. This kitchen just screams home-y. I can just picture myself baking at the stove while preparing dinner for the kids and Jake tonight. I've got my little apron on and some pearls. :) I also love the window over the sink...can you blieve that in every house I have lived in (besides my Missouri house) I have NEVER had a window over the sink. sad. I want to be able to look out into the back yard and see my kids playing. Yelling to them to share from the open window. I want us all gathered around our large dining table eating dinner and discussing our days.
I don't really have a picture of a living room, but I want it to be comfy, cozy, just some place to cuddle up on the couch watching movies and feel safe. I want the walls a deep purple with black and a pale blue accenting it. I want a cat walk over the living room. (where you can look down from the 2nd floor and see into the living room) I can just imagine Christmas morning the kids running downstairs and looking over the rail up top and seeing our 9ft Christmas tree just glowing in the wee early hours with presents scattered underneath.
This is the closest I could find to start my bathroom, however it is nothing like in my imagination. When you enter my bathroom you enter through 2 large french doors. It is a shabby cream colored carpet until you get to the tub/shower area. It has a large plushy brown couch with a chair in the 'sitting' area. It has a standup shower with 4 shower heads clear glass all around it. My favorite part is the bathtub. It's a jacuzzi tub sitting up on a platform with a HUGE bay window overlooking our backyard/woods. There are purple and cream colored candles scattered everywhere behind the tub with soft music floating overhead. The bay window is the crank windows which are usually open while I am relaxing in the tub. this is my heaven.
I want a large wooden staircase that opens up in the main hall leading to the front door.
I want my house to have 4-5 bedrooms with a few bathrooms here and there. I will have a scrapbook/crafts room along with a downstairs with a walk out basement. 3 car garage. (2 on main level and 1 car garage in the walk out basement-also so Jake can have his man cave!)It will have tons of windows for natural lighting. We will be a mile or two away from neighbors out in the country. There will be a huge fenced in back yard with only a tree or two for shade. Room for a vegetable garden, flowers for Storie and I to plant, dirt for Ty to dig in. Room for 2-3 dogs to run around in. My house will be on a few acres of land with a pond within walking distance. I think that about covers it...
