We are still alive and enjoying our new home.    We had a nice visit from Devon on her tour of the world and enjoyed meeting her in person.  I'm afraid we are pretty boring people to visit, though I'm sure I talked her ear off. 

We have all the appliances except the hood installed, all the touch-up painting is done (for now), ceiling fans are up, master closet organizer is installed, and lots more boxes are unpacked.  We just got our stucco color coat today - goodbye grey, hello Trabucco!!!    We got an imperfect smooth texture and our house now reminds me of two scrumptious luxuries: milk chocolate and crushed velvet.  Mmmmm...I just want to wrap myself up in my house. 

Our internet is a little more available now, but only through Kevin's laptop.  Our office computers aren't exactly up and running yet.  And we haven't even touched the common area flooring.  Kevin finished the cedar flooring and baseboards in all the bedroom closets.  Our window treatments have been ordered and we should see everything but the draperies in about two weeks.

Kevin found the camera battery (after Devon's visit, of course - grrrr), so I'll be able to take some pictures of the house and hopefully upload them for you all to get a glimpse.
