The Franics Finale

Deareset friends, family, and my far off Miss Marci, the time has finally come to see what we have done. I know I have been slow in getting pictures and for that I am sorry. Computer issues arose. As you look at these realize that there is much still left to do, pictures to be hung, and finishing touches to work on, but Marci couldn't visualize what I was talking about on the phone, when we would discuss the house, and so I needed to show her. This is the basement fruit room, awaiting this year's perserves.

We now head from the fruit room to Avery's room.

We had a bit of water trouble in her closet this week. (well it was there since we had the tile put in upstairs we just didn't find it until it smelled like the ass end of a skunk in there) That's the reason for all the heaped up clothes and mess. The closet needed to be vacated for a while to do up coming repairs. That's grandma Margie's chair. It's a dear treasure to me.

More mess which bothers me to no end, but those who know me already know that.

The stripes on the walls are not that strong in real life, the flash was making them funky.

Avery's and Ruby's bathroom. I really love this room. One of my fav's.

The shower curtain is of my own creation.

Now we head through the bathroom to Ruby's room. Here's her dresser.

Still need lamps in here that's for sure.

Again with the stripes and the flash.

Down the hall from Ruby's is this wall. Nothing speacial except Marci will appericate it.

Media room with no media equipment or chairs for that matter. Someday.

Storage room and Cam's work out area.

Owen's room is opposite the storage room. This bench I repainted from something really bad.
Turned out great for his room.

Owen's manly bathroom. Handsome and strong.

Future pool table area.

Downstairs kitchen.

This dresser some of you may recognize as being white in a former life.

Living room downstairs and the kids' hang out.

Craft room and laundry in the basement.

Speaker wires hang from all the ceilings still. We need to put in the speakers sometime.

Concrete floors down there.

We now head upstairs.

Great room. Don't mind the laundry on the chair. One of the houlagins did not put it away before I took the shot.

The most awesome sink in all the land. Love it!

Bar. Seats all of us for dinner everynight. Hence the messy children leftovers.

The only garden that we will know for many years because we will not have a yard for who know's how long. It's a cherry tomatoe plane, Ruby's fav. Thanks to grandpa Ron.

Our view. We watched the fireworks from here last night. Way fun!

Our retaing wall that is half finished. Picture grass, a garden, maybe some playground toys for the childred, if they aren't grown before we get it done.

Fireplace in great room.

The kitchen. My absolute fav of the house.
