Our (Mini) Dream Home

Though I think Mark still has a few (small) doubts, this is the closest we've come to agreeing on the house we want to build. I love everything about this plan -- the layout of the bedrooms, the living area, the loft. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The living area is a good size. The bedrooms are small, but we have a few ideas about how to get creative with that.

I don't love that there are so many walls with exposed boards, so we would probably sheet rock most of the interior walls (and leave the upper floors' beams exposed, like in the loft, of course).

And the decor would have to change. I want to do a little more modern-meets-rustic and a little less old-west-meets-drabby. The interior definitely needs more color to offset all that beige!

We're looking at building in about 2+ years, just have to get our finances cleaned up a bit. I'm excited to have this goal to work toward. This is a mini version of our dream home, and it seems like a house that we can manage and keep up with.

And if we want more kids and a dog, we'll have just enough room for both!
