Blog on Hiatus
Greetings, HGTV Dream Home fans.
We’re closing this blog to do a bit of housekeeping. A new and improved blog format is coming soon. We’ll alert you when it’s live.
In the meantime, please pay a visit to our sister sites, HGTVRemodels.com and FrontDoor.com, to learn more about the construction of this year’s home and its picturesque mountainside location.
Admittedly it's still early on Monday morning, however it's clear that the blogs are still on hiatus. Can't say MIA, since Mary did give us fair warning, kind of. So it seems we could be in standby mode longer than anticipated.
Maybe it's time for Mary to temporarily hire a few elves away from Santa's workshop at the North Pole — as long as it doesn't cause HIM to get behind on his toy-making schedule. After all, it's a delicate balance between getting the new and improved blog format back on line without disrupting Santa's assembly line. Better that we wait patiently an extra day or two than for some hopeful little children to go without a single present from their Christmas lists.
I just hope that Mary's not gotten so involved shopping for all those things on HER list that she's forgotten about her devoted bloggers. Therefore, just to make it official, I'm adding my voice to a growing chorus of bloggers who are calling out in desperation — "On Dream Home, On Green Home, On Urban Oasis. Now blog away, blog away, blog away all."
Hurry, Mary, hurry, for 'tis the season to be blogging and there's not a moment to spare.
Dreaming over the weekend about the Dream House — wouldn't it be great if the winners created a blog/website that we could follow after they move in? First blog could be about how they get their current home ready for selling — moving day — getting to know Midway — cooking in the Dream Home — holidays in the Dream Home — meeting Bee and other Midway natives — Would you like to see/follow along with the new owners?
agree 100 %…
Oh absolutely, it would be so much fun! And they could write about the huge bloggers party they have on the first weekend of summer holidays!
That party would be epic! It would be so much fun.
As far as I am concerned, it's a done deal!!
Absolutely!!!
Sandy, will you come out here for the party?!
Depends exactly when it is. Also depends on snow weather. I’m skiddish up there in “lousy” weather. I am trying to plan on coming in January or February, but it is just a plan now. I always seem to want to go places in the wrong season!!
Don't come out when it's winter weather, it's too dangerous.
Believe me I would only come if there are no storms around. I have driven to Denver before in winter and it was OK, it snowed after arrival!
You know Denver is 8 hours drive east of here. We don't like to drive that far in one day anymore. Last summer we were coming home from Denver and a young guy ran right across 8 lanes of traffic coming out of the Eisenhower tunnel. I was so glad my DH was driving. Not only that, the "kid" was old enough to know better and 2) was wearing flip flops! How can you do a decent run in flip flops for goodness sake? What an idiot!!
We usually take three days to go to Denver!
Hey, all you have to do is get to the SLC airport. I've got 4-wheel drive and my husband was born driving in the snow (okay, not really, but he's been driving since he was 14 – legal in Idaho then) and he's great in the snow. There's lots to do and see even when the snow's deep. It's a winter wonderful for sure! And January is the Sundance Film Festival and the Midway Ice Castle will be up then……just saying it could be fun to get together w/Bee and enjoy some warm beverages
You must live near our Dream Home?
I probably wouldn't travel in the snow in an RV either — especially from Denver. I drove all by myself from Steamboat Springs area back to Salt Lake during August and there are a lot of long lonely stretches through there. Would not want to get stuck there in a snowstorm.
Hi, Brenda — Yup, there is a mountain between Bee and me. I live in the Salt Lake area. Midway is my favorite getaway. It's only a short 45 minute drive east either through Park City or through Provo Canyon. Both are beautiful ways to travel.
You and Bee should meet!!
I am sorry Wishingforit, I just don’t fly. I would be coming in an RV. I would go to Midway on my way (with a little exception)to visit my daughter in Denver. If there is snow in Midway, there would probably be snow in Denver. Have visited her and then the snow fell after arrival!!
If you have a good sturdy vehicle and snow tires, you'd be okay as long as it wasn't a big bad storm. Otherwise, wait till March. There will still be tours going then. I personally would not come to Park City during Sundance, it's just too crowded and at this late date you'd never find accommodations and it's usually frigid cold that time of year.
I bought tickets to Sundance this year for the very first time. It's part of my daughter's Christmas present. She's studying film in college. We haven't chosen which films as those haven't been posted yet but I hope it'll be fun!
Thursday isn't comin' soon enough. The big 360 DH reveal is still scheduled for Thursday right?? I wonder if Mary and team would consider giving us our pre-Christmas gift a tad earlier…. like tomorrow?^_^
What's the latest Dream Home rumor? When does this sweeps start? 30th, 31st or 1st? Did I hear a 29th?
Do You Hear What I Hear? (Probably not o.0)
Thanks for keeping the home fires burning beehivestate.
Hope everyone is swell and all is well:)
Hi Cami Soney and I found this very pretty song and was going to share it with everyone. Then we saw your post Do You Hear What I Hear? It is nice to see young people singing pretty songs; haven't heard her sing before. I bet you have the sheet music to this one and play it for your familly. Thanks Cami. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3FbcKMd4ek
Thanks Alice that's one of my favorites. I do have this one but would like a prettier arrangement to play. Nothing beats a pretty voice with the full orchestra though. Hope you're well Alice.
I like that sentament, yes, we like to blog away, blog away, and blog. Sometimes I wish this blog
was on Skype so we could actually talk to each other. Don't know how that would work but as long
as we are on the dream mode, let's dream!!!
Oh my goodness, please don't ask me to Skype! I prefer to keep a few illusions.
Skype! Skype!! Skype!!! Skype!!!!! lol.
Are you nuts? I thought you wanted to go into anonymity?!!
LOL!!! You make me laugh!!! xD
lol, bee !!
Just a few? I am an illusionaryist.
In case you're curious — I love the idea, so I thought I'd list the news: HGTV has added another Canadian-made home design show, 'Love It Or List It' to its U.S. schedule. Australia’s Beyond Distribution has sold the HGTV cable channel 52 hours of the lifestyle series.
The show, which currently airs on W Network in Canada, has homeowners decide between renovating their home or buying new real estate. Either way, it makes for entertaining TV, and viewers get to peek inside even more homes for great design ideas and real estate deals.
'Love It Or List It' premiered Monday, November 14 on HGTV.
Its been on OWN (Oprah's network) since January! Cute show.
Hilary never accomplishes everything she says she will- I would have "listed" every single home……
I do wish they would bring back Designed to Sell!
I loved Designed to Sell. When we were listing our home in WA, we'd watch that show, laugh, then go and put away more of our personal items.
Have you guys watched "My house, your money" yet? What's your take on that?
Watched it – some of those people are way too controling. The one yonug guy (with a twin) I wanted to reach through the screen and give him a swat.
I had trouble with it, something bothered me about the way the young people wanted to live “near the bars” and had no respect for the fact that the parents were willing to help them. What ever happened to gratitude?
In the middle of re-finishing our kitchen/dining hardwood floors last week, I asked my husband — "Why didn't we just move instead?" I love DIY projects, but usually in the middle when it's the really hard work, I just think of moving!! Sounds like a great show!
DeerSpring…..will you please repost the link? It won't go to the correct one, always says "ERROR."
Thank you in advance.
I'll try again!
Brendain K, it will not post correctly. You can go to Phoenix Decorating Company Facebook
and scroll down to the test run. It's picture 10 of 88. There's definitely blue on the float.
Yes, definitely!!! Woo Hoo!!!
Thank you for making our Dream House blue where blue should be!!!
BrendainK, I was so happy to see the BLUE for you on FB!
I was wondering if they were going to put the blue on the float because it wasn't on the drawings they made.
If they are going to do it, they should do it correctly!
I love the snow on top of the house. Thanks again, DeerSpring, for always finding the coolest stuff!
We drove by last night and the home was very quiet, with only a few lights on and the security guard in his white car out front. I was at the quilt shop on Saturday and someone had heard that "for $75 you can go on a gala tour inside." News to me, but I told them for $20 +$2 ticket fee you can do the tour starting in January.
If you come for the tour, you can go to Midway and at the city park behind town hall you can ice skate on our own outdoor rink and even rent skates. Very cool!
Thanks for keeping a watchful eye on the DH, Beehive!
I hope we learn about the tour soon, although it will probably be a few weeks. There will be too much excitement about the 360 tour. I just told my niece that I would babysit her 18-month-old son on Thursday. I am glad he takes two long naps, because I will be itching to get to the 360 tours during any moment I can!
Yeah, we are expecting a huge wind/snow storm here, coming in on Wednesday night. I hope I don't lose my internet! Otherwise, I will be up and on the computer at 7 a.m. our time.
Oh, and I'm not sure I'd want to pay $75 for a tour, but I guess it depends on what else they were offering. If Jack and Linda are there and they are serving great food and wine, I'd consider it, but that's not likely. I think you're right that they rumor just spread and the amount got much bigger than the $20 that we expect that the tour will be. However, I'm actually spending a lot more than that to go to Denver next August to see "The Book of Mormon: The Musical", which was a nearly impossible ticket to get, so I guess $75 may not be out of the question…
I would love to see it, maybe it will come to SLC. THen again, maybe not!
I ice skated ONE time and fell on my caboose!
Well if you come here in winter, we'll have to try it together. I've had a broken ankle years ago and haven't tried anything to do with ice but I think I could have a go at it if I hang on to the edges all the way around!
I would love to try again. It doesn't look that hard!
Speaking of "caboose," when you come here we can ride the Heber Creeper.
Sounds scary to me…..creeper!
lol
They call it that b/c the top speed is 28 mph. It's a little old-fashioned steam train.
Oh!! lol. Sounds like fun! Good way to see the surroundings!! I can't wait!
Thank you!!!
Beehive, have you seen this video already, "Wasatch County, Utah in
Winter"? It's really beautiful!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yT0r-4FcUhw
In a word, awesome! Except for the Bridal Veil Falls in Provo Canyon, it was pretty much all places in Midway. We see those geothermal areas every day, the steam rising from the pond, it's beautiful. I really believe Midway is a sacred place. At the end, he is driving down River Road near our home and he goes by the Cowboy Museum at the base of Memorial Hill. Thanks so much, I had not seen it before.
Sooooo So Neat!!!
Wyo_Girl, you're welcome. I read on the Phoenix site that the decorating starts on
December 3rd! Bring on the flowers!
I just read your other post. Thanks for reposting The Keddington's blog for those
who haven't seen it yet. I'm not sure what happened to this post. It morphed into
a strange jumble of letters on the blog but was perfectly fine on my Intense Debate site.
So my neighbors both have their Christmas lights up on their house. The probably have a ladder too and someone to get up there and put them on!
Tonight, I put up my Christmas tree in my living room and some lights on the railing on the front of my house! Now I don't feel like the Lone Ranger.
We're going to decorate this weekend, we'll be the first on the block. It will be good exercise keeping Larson from knocking down the tree. I'm still working on my DH to get me that moose weathervane.
In my hometown, there was one house that was all lit up like the house in Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation movie, with the words "Merry Christmas" and then the house right next to it had one little string of forlorn lights and a sign that said "Bah Humbug" — very funny!
I hope everyone had a great holiday. My daughter and granddaughters came down from Indiana to Charlotte,NC and that went well and monday the 28th was our 31st anniversary so right now everything looks great – now to just win the dream home
Happy Anniversary !
It is Tuesday already. Only 2 more days to go til the virtual tour starts. I can hardly wait. I really hope they have the blog up and running before then, or at least on the same day. Oh well, we can still talk here.
DAILY BUZZ. TUESDAY. Hi there and good morning, two more days, and while we are waiting, did you know the Provo river used to be a completely straight channel as it flows through the Heber Valley? Here's a short photo set I did this summer that shows how the river was "reclaimed" for recreation. Thank goodness! http://www.flickr.com/photos/67137540@N05/sets/72…
This also explains why the middle Provo no longer floods.
I like curves and angles — hubby cringes every time we move furniture or do some type of decorating or gardening because I don't like straight lines! Nature rules with a meandering river!
What was the red fruit near the end of the once again fabulus pictures?
NEAT!!! I am going to be like that guy fishing in the river with my hip waders on!!
My DH has wadders, so I will go with you.
Oh! YAY!!!!
I don't think we are getting a new blog until the 360 tour starts on Thursday, so I was thinking about leftovers. Not necessarily leftover turkey and stuffing, of which I have an abundance in my refrigerator, but leftover links that we have to visit to bide our time and keep the Dream Home dream alive. I have been looking at beehivestate's wonderful flicker photos again, and I went back to look at Jace's commercial for the Dream Home promo. Here it is again, in case anyone missed it. http://keddingtons.blogspot.com/2011/11/hgtv-comm…
Enjoy your leftovers, and thanks again to DeerSpring, who always finds the coolest links, even if they make her remove them later!!
SO COOL!!! thanks for sharing!
what's the commercial about ?
It will probably be on HGTV to get people excited about the Dream Home.
ok thx
Well it already has!!! This should be under Wyo_Girl's response to taylersky.
Thank you for the repost as I did not get/see it the first time.
How cool!! Thank you for posting that, Wyo_Girl!
You're welcome, and welcome to the blog. It's going to get exciting in a few days!!
It is! I have to be in court with my BFF thursday in another town at 9AM
so I have to wait until I get home to see the tour…I guess I will survive. I am so excited! Thank you for the warm welcome!
And the global survey says: Vienna, Austria's excellent infrastructure, safe streets and good public health service make it the nicest place to live in the world. Following in the top ten are Zurich Switzerland, Auckland New Zealand, Munich Germany, Dusseldorf Germany, Vancouver Canada, Frankfurt Germany, Geneva Switzerland, Bern Switzerland, and Copenhagen Denmark.
Clearly they failed to consider the scenic beauty, charm, and small-town friendliness of HGTV's Dream Home 2012 host, Midway Utah. I'm certain that the cost of living would be much more reasonable as well.
My own survey of the top ten most desirable places to live, aside from winning the Dream Home in Midway of course (taking weather in to consideration, among other things) would be San Diego CA(!), Poipu Kauai, Santa Barbara CA, St. Helena CA, Key West FL, Palm Springs CA and Phuket Thailand. I'd round out the list with Serenbe, GA and the as yet unknown (hint: clues needed, Mary) Urban Oasis 2012 location.
I'm sure I've missed several hundred communities that should be in my top ten, but then that would make it my top several hundred list.
More Than Midway To Paradise!
Your choices sound great to me, although I have only visited 4 of the ones you listed. Here is a link to a newer post from Serenbe's site:
http://fathomaway.com/postcards/chill/serenbe-hot…
THE TIME IS ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait until the 1st!!!
We just love this time of year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JhSRiDSBfU&fe…
So Pretty!! Thank you for sharing Alice!!
YW Brenda! We just love to decorate our home this time of year. <3 from Alice and Soney
I LOVE this time of year!!!
I sure hope this definition is not the case here in the HGTV blogs: one explanation of meaning says that a hiatus may refer to a break of at least several weeks in the normal schedule. Sometimes programs go on hiatus so that the network can reserve episodes for airing during ratings sweeps to boost advertising revenue. Programs "return from hiatus" in time for the sweeps period so as to generate high ratings, and usually include special content such as guest stars, new and improved formats and unexpected topics. Although that usually applies to TV rather than online blogs. Still, it's a worry for the blog deprived.
Do you think Mary is planning on introducing any new guest stars? She's already welcomed Super Fan Gail back to the blog. What other surprises might she have in store for us? Could we find ourselves overwhelmed with new material, including the Dream Home online 360 reveal, as well as DH Sweepstakes rules, entry dates and prize package information? Will we have exciting new Green Home updates and photos to go with them? Will Mary blindside us with wildly clever Urban Oasis location clues. She just might choose to hit us with all the firepower at her disposal, leaving us to scatter like wild geese during the hunt.
Well, however it goes, I'm eagerly looking forward to an early holiday extravaganza, bound to be coming our way — and soon!
Bring it on!
I remember some struggling TV shows that I loved going on hiatus and never coming back. You don't think the Dream Home will disappear like that, do you? I guess the term for that is "permanent hiatus", so we'll hope we don't see that phrase added to the top of the blog!!
Weather report for Midway is showing snow for Wed/Thursday, a big storm. I would like to get you guys one more picture of the house, from the back, before the big reveal. I'll get up and out early in the morning before I go babysitting.
Woo Hoo!!!! More pictures!!!
:'( I'm SO HAPPY!!!
No going out in storms for photo ops, Miss Bee ! Did you ever hear the sad song "Wildfire" ?
http://youtu.be/DIkpqdjU-qo ( Oh, drat ! I forgot that this song always makes me cry ! )
The Midway folks will be out in a blizzard searching for you, calling "Beeeehiive, run calling Beeeehiive"
so don't take any unnecessary chances, ok ?
I would love to see new pictures but do bee carefull!
How do they get those awesome photos? It's so beautiful, with the music in the background. Thanks. Sunny here this morning, no blizzard but “they” say the wind will come up tonight and that people should put away their Christmas decorations from their yards.
I don't want Bee to be stuck in a snowstorm!! That would make me sad!!!
While we wait, I have found another interesting item like I posted on the Green House blog:

Did you see the other one I posted on “Green Home” blog? That one is cool too!
I thought that they might have been crabapple.All you pictures are great and pretty and nice etc.
Not crabapple, too small, pretty sure they were rose hips.
They sure are pretty!
Tomorrow,Tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow you'r only a day away!__________________________
The sun will come up tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow they'll be sun…. just thinking
about tomorrow….
Good job Bee,I'm happy to here from you& glad that you did not get stuck in the snow.Just one more day untill we hear from HGTV!
I just watched that with my kids this morning!
Thank you Angel just love your name. Hope you like this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nnjkb4q6FKU
Thank you very much!
When I wake up in the middle of the night, which is often because I am in my fifties (LOL), I always imagine the different rooms of the Dream Home, and it helps me get back to sleep for some reason. I rely on this floorplan to guide me through the house: http://www.hgtv.com/dream-home/hgtv-dream-home-20… So, I was thinking. We can almost piece together most of the rooms without the 360 degree tour that starts tomorrow, because we have seen so many sneak peeks. For example, we know that the entry has see-through glass on the stairs, we have seen the kitchen in the Wellborn cabinet blogs, we have seen photos of the Great Room with those Great Windows, we know the colors of the walls in the Master Bedroom sitting room and bedroom areas, we have seen the Americana bedroom that was going to be a bunk room, and we have seen many photos of the back yard, thanks to Beehivestate. So what's left? I can go back to sleep now!
the space under the stairs. bits and pieces of the guest bathroom….. hmmmm
Lol, Wyo–counting DH rooms instead of sheep ! What will make the house come alive will be Linda's decor…cannot wait !
Tomorrow's the day! It's almost here! This is just like Christmas! lol Can't wait to open the presents!
TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DAILY BUZZ. WEDNESDAY. Last day of November, calm before the storm! http://www.flickr.com/photos/67137540@N05/sets/72… Beautiful morning, expecting a big wind storm tonight/tomorrow.
Thanks for the new pictures.Stay safe!
So pretty!! Build a nice warm fire
LOVE IT!!! Thank you!!!!
WooHoo—-hold onto your hat! Supposed to have 70 mile an hour winds this evening, Bee. Anything in the yard will be down the road…….hold onto Lars! Thanks for another wonderful peek at the DH. Have not been able to sleep the last few nights so I've been playing solitaire on the computer way past midnight. Do you think the DH tour will be up at midnight tonight? I'll probably be awake, so I guess I'll check.
They said 9 a.m. EST, so I figure 7 our time. i'll be with you on the internet!
WishingforIt, we just left Park City and it's starting to snow up there. Here, Midway, the wind is really picking up.
It's 9:30 pm here and it's windy, but not as bad as was predicted. So far every "intense storm" predicted this fall has turned out to be underwhelming.
The wind was howling all night but I don't see anything down this morning, except for my internet connection.
This weather pattern tonite must be awful large because we are supposed to have 70 mile
an hour winds too!!!!!=/
Thanks, Beehive. Beautiful OUTSIDE pictures of the Dream Home! Tomorrow we see the
INSIDE! "The space within becomes the reality of the building." (Frank Lloyd Wright)
Thanks for making the Dream Home a reality with your hundreds of photos over the
last several months!
Wow, you're welcome!
Yes, THANK YOU!!!
You know, when I first saw that blue, I really wasn't fond of it, but now, I can't even imagine the Dream Home without it. It would be so boring. I think the blue really showcases the "piecemeal" concept of the additions to the old farmhouse that the architects were aiming for. I am a convert — I now like the blue!
Maybe HGTV will be a trendsetter with the blue. I recall the day I was there and talked to the construction foreman and he asked me if I liked the blue, and I asked him back and he just shook his head.
Thanks beehive for being such a devoted blogger I have not been much here lately I am battling a cold for over a week now, thank you for the pictures the house looks lovely. Can't wait for tomorrow along everybody else!!!
You're welcome. Hope you get that cold over and done with!
Your photos have made this a nice waiting period since construction started. Really looking forward to tomorrow.
Me too! I hope we don't all crash the server, trying to get on at once.
You know already what I would say about your pictures!!!!! That driveway is fantastic. It is so long
so I cannot even imagine how many cars in total can park at one time! I thing I see the huge
windows do not have any coverings on the, but It appears that the front roof is being held up by
two giant tree trunks, am I correct?
Which room has the black and white checkered rug? I am not too fond of that but I will wait to see
the entire room first before I make my final judgement.
I don't know anything about a checkered rug, maybe it's the game room? Just guessing. Yes, those trees in front are really really close to the roof. The wind storm has not materialized yet, maybe it will miss us. They said “hurricane force” winds in the Salt Lake City area. I wanted to go in back of the house and photograph but there were, again, many people in the area and I thought it best to stay back. Leroy was there, I saw him standing in the road in front.
Did you see the checkered rug? It is really blue and white.
yes navy and cream, you are right.
I take your correction gracefully. Thank you!!!
Awww…Leroy!!
For the blog not having anything new to talk about, we sure do know how to make conversation!!! ^_^
*Hugs to everyone!! I am sure we can use them!! *
Hugs are even better than chocolate — and that's saying something!!
Speaking of chocolate, there was a big article in this morning Wall Street Journal about how the candy makers are trying to influence (trick) us to buy even more chocolate all year round.
I already do that.
ha ha, bee–as if people need to be influenced into buying chocolate ! Chocolate already "talks to" us with all its come-hither persuasion….candy makers don't need to do a thing.
LOL……Oh, so funny!!
It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas here in Seattle. The trees in Westlake Park are so pretty all lit up and the huge Christmas Tree all decorated. And the Carousel is up and running for kids of all ages. http://vodpod.com/watch/2650246-its-beginning-to-…
Thought you might enjoy seeing this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWoP8upzpyA&fe…
Seattle has such great community spirit. My daughter in law's family lives near there.
Thanks Alice. I'll be coming up to Seattle area in a couple of days. I'm praying for good weather;) or at least good roads. It'll be fun to see snow on the mountain and trees on the way up, as long as it stays there.
safe travels, Cami !
Thank you LL. I'm a little lost around here this morning:S
No peeking at Mary as she climbs down the chimney to deliver our online Dream Home tour package, or she might just leave us with nothin' but a lump of coal on our computer screens. Ok goodnight now, sweet Dream Home dreams.
Hey Mary don't forget to eat your milk and cookies http://www.bloomingtonneeds.com/images/cookies-an…
I cant sleeeep!!!!! todays the daaaay!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please post it faaaaasteeeeerrrrrrrrr
today is the day cant wait till i get off work to check everything there is to check out.
wow – I saw the videos of the house and is it all so beautiful – this is a great house
Thanks, I just viewed the 90 second exterior, interior, and rooms tours!
wow love it i think i almost cried
I tried to post on the Nov 18 Superfan blog, and I got this message: "Your comment must be approved by the site admins before it will appear publicly." What's up?
What in the world? I just tried to find anything new and it's past 9:40 a.m. EST so where are you, Mar? Wyoming and Beehivestate are waiting with itchy fingers!
Mary! Gail!! John!!! Linda and Jack?!!! Is anybody home? Where's our new Dream Home? We're sitting here tapping our toes and staring at the screen… waiting for the "lightbulb" moment… praying our power doesn't go out in the windstorm… Come out and play, we're waiting!
Beehive, Scorewarrior found new videos on the frontpage of the Dream Home section with
90 second exterior, interior, and room tours!
I'm looking, but I can't find. Give us a link. Thanks.
I'm there! Thanks!!
Just found it all, thanks, DH main page. ALL IS WELL. I started with the great room, now I'm going to the game room. I'm looking for quilts!
Well it would be so much fun if we could post on the new blog picture. Soon enough, I guess they are busy over there this morning.
I noticed one of my blogs finally posted on the Green Home blog that I wrote a few days ago. I was just testing to see if I could post there too. It finally showed up.
I hope it doesn't take "all day" (literally) to get our posts up. What did you think so far, Cami? I was looking for the Robert Duncan art and couldn't find it. Also, no quilts that I can find so far. Oh well, the master suite is awesome! Love those chandeliers!!!
I feel like I have ADHD. Something keeps catching my eye and leading me to the next room, then I forget where I was and where I was going. I love the laundry room. I just saw it a minute ago. I'm still trying to remember where else I've been. I'll just say, I'm sure I love it all.o.0
Do you have a dog beehivestate? The laundry room sure is decked out for a dog, although I'm sure my cat won't mind taking over the new digs.
Our son has a dog so we have occasional “custody” Did you see the doggie dream bed in the master suite?
I guess I'm going to have to get a dog.
I guess this is the only blog that still works or posts right away. So good morning to all. Love the Dream Home<3 Still taking it all in. It's going to take awhile to get through the tour. Have fun.:)
I guess the blog is still on hiatus. Good luck to the techy crew in getting this blog up and going again.

My dear…..that's on Ty's show!!!
I know that! I always think it's funny because it's so predictable!
Love it love it love it. Only a quick tour while at work. But I love it. A couple of dead links in the virtual tour. But nothing I couldn't work around. The tour makes the master shower look ginormous. The photos not so much. so I am not sure. It is definitely gorgeous regardless. The whole house is gorgeous.
