I realized that I hadn't posted pictures of the family room. We still need to tile the fireplace- I am thinking slate tiles- and Richard is going to build a surround. We also need to replace the TV stand- the This End Up hutch has been good to us, but I think its time to move it downstairs. Eventually a throw rug would be nice- Owen is loud and the lack of fabric makes this room deafening. The bottom picture is the home's original fireplace (dolled up for Christmas, '06).
