2 weeks...

In two weeks...we close on our first home! We are so excited! We went by Hollywood (the nickname I gave our home. Kevin just smiles and rolls his eyes when I say it :) ), and the tile has been installed. The carpet wasn't in yet, but I could tell the floor had been cleaned (no more nails, etc., on the floor), so I'm guessing it will be done very soon. The carpet we picked out is a frieze monotone carpet in taupe. It's really soft, and it will be even softer with the specialty pad we picked out. I'm thinking it was rubber, but I'm not entirely sure. It's supposed to be really good (I'm not a carpet pad expert, obviously. So many decisions!). The tile is taupe with tan variegation. We are currently picking out ceiling fans, and that is taking awhile. I think we finally have them picked out, but this seems to be the one area where Kevin and I disagree on the kind we like. Surprisingly, he really likes very modern fans, and I'm more interested in chandelier style. I guess it's good that the rest of the decisions were easier. Today, I'm setting up all of our utilities. It finally seems real!
