....for HGTV's Dream Home giveaway!! Yay!!! In case you haven't entered yet - you still have a few days and can enter
This year HGTV built their Dream Home near the beautiful Santa Fe, New Mexico - this gorgeous home has a really open single story floor plan......
....this is the home & car you can enter to win! And, of course....I have more pics!!
Front of the home. The house was designed to fit into the New Mexico landscape...and I think they did a pretty good job! ;)
Entry Way - very light and airy
1st glance into the home
Cozy Fireplace Nook....the only thing that's missing is a big cup of coffee and a great book
Daybed nook - perfect place for a nap!! ....I'm sure my little Molly would agree - ha!!
Dinning room - look at that a-mazing view!! Love those windows!!
How fabulous is that accent wall?!?! Love, LOVE it!!!
....I can totally picture myself make a mean pancake breakfast in there!!
I just LOVE this open floor plan!!
Ok...I'll admit, I'm not really feeling the green....it's just not the right shade for me
Master bath - simple yet luxurious....I see many bubble baths in that tubs future! ;)
Sunrise room - this room is just past the master bedroom and is the perfect place to watch the sunrise over the New Mexico desert....this room would SOOOO be the PERFECT place for some morning quiet time.....Yup, that view + coffee + Bible = perfect way to start your day!!
I like this space - like the idea of a media room BUT....where are you suppose to cuddle?!? I love cuddling up next to my (super hot) husband while watching tv/movies....don't you?!? Lol!! ;)
The house looks so pretty at night...I'd sure love to have a glass of wine on the back patio!!
View from the backyard - love the view of those mountains!!
Perfect outdoor entertaining area - if I win I'm inviting all of you over for a party! ;)
Good luck!!! And....if you win - you'll have invite me over for a glass of wine on your back patio!!! ;)
Speaking of houses.....after work, Kevin and I headed off to our house floor plans' model home (did that make sense??? - hope so! lol!!)
We have a few design dilemmas - particularly in the sitting room/dinning room area. When you walk into our house there is a large space that doesn't really have much definition....here's how the model home is set-up
I have a feeling we will probably do something similar...what do you think???
Here's the other (much more minor though) design challenge - the room is a good size but....it seems that you are pretty limited on furniture location. We will also probably end up doing something pretty similar to this furniture set-up.
Our biggest "concern" (if you can even call it a concern) is what kind of couch to get....and does anyone else find it odd that the couch is so far from the wall??? The more I look at it the more odd it becomes....hmmm.... Any thoughts/comments/feelings???
Ok....last picture - promise!! ;) With the permission of the guy in charge (of course!!) of these model homes {yes, that was for you Katie & Katie - wink, wink - lol!!} we were able to take our little Molly in with us! She was SUCH a good girl - she was at our feet the WHOLE time! She is getting soooo good at staying - even when she can't see us!! Pretty BIG milestone!!! Plus, our little Molly just
LOVES stairs {which....fyi, she discovered at
Katie's house} so she had a great time!!
Here she is, in the Master, sitting & staying - lol!! So adorable!! ;)
