House Tour - Come On In!

Shouldn't every house tour begin at the front door? 

Miss M and Miss K say, "Hey!  So glad you're here!  Come on in!".

I like the spaciousness of my foyer.

I like that I have room for a piece of furniture.

 

I like that I have some wall space for a little something else.

This oil painting was done by my Auntie Syl from a photograph that she took of a Tuscan villa on a trip to Italy.  All of her paintings are highly prized in my family!  We like will them to our kids and stuff.

I like the way the sun streams through the window above the front door in the morning.

Kind of blinding, eh?

I don't like the way that all that lovely sunlight highlights the dust that I the maid (ha!) left behind or the quality of the cheapo hardwood floors that the builder installed.

Gotta have a little talk with that maid....

And last, but not least - no home would be complete without a guard dog named, Opie!  Doesn't he look ferocious????
