So....

Were STILL in escrow... The anticipated closing date is May 12, 2011. Since the city still has to do the inspection (should happen this Tuesday: May 11) I'm assuming that we aren't going to close for another week or so... Then after the city signs off on the house, it's just the documents that need to be signed. That shouldn't take that long (fingers crossed).

I can't help but keep thinking: Please hurry people! I want to get into our house already :)

We have design ideas already and have mostly decided on paint colors and all of that good stuff. I was pretty schocked about the variety of paint colors. Behr has like 16+ shades of Grey. Seriously... as if standing in front of the paint display isn't hard enough. You find the perfect shade of whatever color and then you have to find a color that matches that base color. Not to mention that you have to be mindful that the color dries darker on the wall then on the little piece of paper.
I think I need to stop watching home improvement shows... They keep giving me ideas. Right now I think about the house as a blank sheet. Every show I watch they do some nice wall art or stripe or something that I fall in LOVE with. Unfortunately I fall in LOVE a lot with DIY shows and poor Dennis cant keep up, since I keep changing my mind...

I just can't wait to get started! Will be updating along the way :)
