Where oh where....

Where oh where have the Rische's been??? I know I am awful about updating!  We went to Hawaii and put our feet in the sand for a week in March, which was absolutely wonderful!  We enjoyed our trip and I am most certain Dustin would move in a heartbeat if he could convince his wife and children to move! We would highly recommend Maui to anyone looking for a beautiful vacation spot.
We came back to reality which included more house work and oh yeah....SNOW!  We are very close to finishing up the main floor.  Only a small piece of crown moulding, a shade, curtain, and we will have it completed. YEAH!  I have been waiting and waiting and oh yeah...WAITING for my bathroom vanity to be completed and bless his little soul he finished it last week!

 
My inspiration for the bathroom! I matched the red and the room came together, despite the negative feedback I got initially about the red I think it was a hit in the end!
 
 
So now what are we up to you ask....hmmm...well the yard is a disaster, so we are going to patch back in the bare spots in the front, do some landscaping, possibly a new front step and oh yeah...paint!  Stay tuned for these updates!  I have someone to paint the house, but I am not sure I can be here when he does it. Nathan...I think you are going to put me over the edge with your sprayer!
 
Our current endeavor is an entry way. Right now you walk directly into our kitchen to take your shoes off from the garage. For those of you that know me understand my CDO (OCD, but in alphabetical order) is hightened with the dirt that comes into my kitchen. I need a place to call a "Mud Room". So bless my little husband's heart along with my wonderful father-in-law they started building me one. It's not big, but at least I can keep the mess out of my kitchen!  I put a few pictures up, but once we can get it closer to being completed I will update again, so you can fully understand. It's hard to imagine unless you've seen it in person!
 
The picture above and below is what we had before.


This will be where the door to the garage will be.

This is the part of the wall that will be built.
