The front of the house, standing at the front door looking out.

Detail of the front door.
Vines growing up the side of the house. We have to get rid of them because they're ruining the siding.
This is one view of the backyard, with a little archway thing. The previous owners had dogs and the grass in the backyard is pretty much ruined. This area, at the bottom of the picture, is totally devoid of grass. There is actually some vines growing there, but we have to get rid of those. On the right side of the picture you can see the workshed.
This is the workshed in the backyard. It's pretty nice actually. Inside there is a work bench and a lot of cupboards. On top of the shed is some storage, behind that little closed window.
This is the double deck in the backyard. Really big and nice. Though I guess it is made of cedar, and someone painted it. So we will have to keep repainting it.
The backyard also has a little area with a built-in grill. To the left you can see a crack in the cement that we will probably have to fix.
This is the upstairs. I'm standing in the dining room, taking a picture of the upstairs living room. It's very similar to our previous house.
The kitchen sink is wonderful! Really great, expensive fixtures. At our previous house, we had spent so much on the house itself that we really skimped on plumbing and lighting fixtures. It will be nice to have some high quality plumbing.
This is the downstairs living room, where we'll have the TV and couches. It is shaped like an "L" and there is another alcove to the right where I'll put my desk. Also on the lower level is an unfinished area with storage, a bathroom and the laundry area. Then there is another room which will be Kevin's office, and another room which will be the exercise room.
This is the upstairs bathroom. Unfortunately it is going to be Kevin's bathroom, and he doesn't (for some odd reason) like the pink countertops.
The kitchen. Isn't it beautiful? I love the island in the center with the oven. It's also got lots of really great cabinets. Almost all of the cabinets have roll out shelfs, which is really cool! (See video above for example!)
The appliances are all brand new in 2007.
The door, which is really nice with beveled glass, leads to the double deck outside.
