stucco is done


We couldn't go in the house, because the floor was drying, but I got a photo of the floor through the hole in the door where the handle will go. It looks pretty good. Our stucco is on and I took a couple of photos.. one from the front and one from the side... of Myra :)

Builders dream tour







Our new neighborhood is going to be featured in the Builder's Dream House Tour next week. Pretty cool, there are about 15 houses that will be showcased and they are going to auction off one house and there is a $15 charge for the tour. All of the proceeds go to the Tulsa RiverParks association and there will be a new bike path built along the Arkansas River, right to our neighborhood. Very nice.

I am going to take some photos this weekend.. the stucco is on, the wood floors have been stained, but it is really really raining today!

April 22nd... granite and tile!


The granite and tile is almost complete... the backsplash in the kitchen needs to be completed.. it will be tumbled marble tiles 4 x4 that look really nice. The Guest bathroom granite really came out nice... it is the one with the white cabinet. The shower in the Guest Bathroom also looks nice. In the master bath, we have nice granite and I guess I didn't realize how large the second vanity was. You can see that there is a little sitting area for Myra :) and the shower and tube have been tiled. Upstairs you can see that the tile is a different color, it is called milk chocolate.. and it looks really nice too




Everything is going to look so much better when it is clean, but it is coming along.

We picked our light fixtures this weekened and took a look at the package that we have for our kitchen. Really nice, stainless... we picked out a refridgerator also.

tornado sirens!

Ok.. this has nothing to do with the new house... but it's a cool photo from our back yard... the formation of a Tornado.. see in the middle of the photo.. the clouds on the edge of the storm are lowering and spinning and coming towards the ground.. but it broke up and the storm passed by.

April 2nd photos










Here are some photos after the house has been painted on the inside. The first photo is of the rocks and Bricks that are going on the house.. The front of the house changed a little... we have a little arch over the front door and we wet with one garage door instead of two. But you can see where the rock oes and the brick goes.. and there is stucco on the bay window. it should look really nice.

The paint color in the main parts of the house is 'stone grey' but as you can see, it changes color based on the light in the room and in the bedrooms it is 'lindhurst mushroom'

video of the house -April 1

I thought that I would try something new..

click here for a short video of the house. I started upstairs in the office and had to walk pretty fast to get all of it in, before my cameras memory gave up.

The new paint colors are really nice... "grey stone" for the main part of the house and "lindhurst mushroom" for the master bedroom/bath and guest bedroom/bath.
