Om--ickelson Casa Update

We are still under contract and we are hoping to close by the end of the month. We have SLOWLY been buying/ searching for items for the house. We are trying not to buy very much because Jerod will be gone for a year and we want to wait until he gets back to fully furnish the house and buy “new” stuff. As of now, we are getting the basics, like appliances, TVs and our bedroom set. Once we close on the house, we will probably landscape the front and keep it at that. We have many plans for the house but we will wait until Jerod gets back from Iraq.

Any who, Kayrin, Jerod and I went at stuck about 60 post its on minor repairs that we want the builder to make to the house before we move in. It was funny but I am sure the workers hate us now. It is a new house and so we want everything to be as close to perfect as we can get it. We have an unfinished room down stairs that is going to be the office and then it has an area designated for a wine cellar (Jerod and his dad will be heading that project.) Jerod and I are having a big debate on what type of flooring to put in the office. In the section of the wine cellar, it will be hardwood floors for sure. We have found waterproof hardwood floors. However, I wanted hardwood floors in the whole area! Below is a picture of the office furniture I am going to get, and doesn’t it look great with hardwood floors! The compromise so far is to have a pretty carpet pattern in the office area and wood only in the wine cellar. Nevertheless, if you see Jerod go ahead and tell him that you think the wood floors like great!!! Haha!
