dream house

I have always loved anything that has to do with design and decorating homes. If I could only watch one TV channel for the rest of my life, it would definitely be HGTV. Buying a house is far off in the distance, but I have some ideas that I think would be the bee's knees in a future home.

Of course I'm dreaming here (makes me sound like mr. wants, ha!), but these are some of the elements I would love.

I know it's quite the list, but I can't stop dreaming about it. What a spiffy house it would make. I was talking to my gram this morning, and she told me that she "just wants more husbands & babies" (i.e. wants me and my cousins to get married & have kids).

We'll just take it one step at a time.
