New things
a future play room/game room/home school room/entertainment room/etc. just a big open room at the top of the staircase. :-)
luke's room, eventually the boys will share this room since it's huge
beth's purple room. we're working on a shabby chic feel in here. her furniture used to be mine, and before that it was my mom's! my dad sanded, stripped and painted it for beth.
a shoe basket (there's another by the front door). we've decided that our home will be a shoe-less home since our backyard tends to be soggy and shoes get very dirty!
our steep staircase. there are three steps, a small landing, then the flight leading to the upstairs game room. we couldn't figure out how to get a gate around the three small steps so those are free steps- no wipe outs yet (knock on wood).
an aerobic septic system. yup, we're septic now.
our big backyard. our lot is 20K sq feet, which is a little under 1/2 an acre. we have no fence yet, and the backyard is very low. we have lots of standing water in the back, and there are a few "holes" in the middle of the yard where water tends to stand. there are also lots of crawfish holes!
a view of the backyard from beth's room. if you click on the photo to make it bigger, you can see our small bog. we also have a hawk that likes to hunt back here, he sits on the telephone wire and swoops down for breakfast and dinner. sometimes we see him twice a day.
our downstairs formal room, which is currently our playroom. we spend most of our day downstairs given the fact that the kids can't go up and down to play, so for now the formal room is the kid's room.
a half bathroom! yay!

Awwww! That bed is awesome! Love that it has such a history. And I hear you on the half bath. The house we rented while George was in law school had 1 bathroom. I hated that guests had to use it. Of course, now our half bath always smells like pee from a certain little boy missing the toilet. Oh well, you win some, you lose some.
Hi! You guys should consider shutters throughout the house. Kids can't mess with them and they really bring the room together. Not to mention the have a very tidy look.
Wow - that looks great! So much space - it looks wonderful!
