Mies van der Rohe said “Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.”
Well, we didn't use bricks, and I know some of those contractors weren't careful, but we did begin last summer, and we did build a house. Here are some pictures of what the Urtons call, the house that Daryl built.
Living room with the nephews' favorite red chair--the same chair Richard told Daryl he's not sexy enough to sit in.
Master bath with a glimse of the famous shower.
Master bedroom. Yes, we know we need new bedding.
Another shot of the famous shower. I heard the inspector back there laughing during the final. I don't see what's so funny.
Another shot of the living room.
The office is behind the glass partition which also doubles as our cinema paradiso (the projector shines on the glass screen from behind.
The genkan, aka a room designed for storing shoes. And in this case, also for storing junk we still need to install in the house.
kitchen. Sorry it's not clean, but the batteries in the camera were dead the one day the kitchen was clean.
Dining room where we will feed any of you who come visit.
The giant rotter (which, by the way, does not currently contain any rotten food.)
Many have asked how we clean our concrete floor. If we clean, we use this big yellow janitor mop. Jonas loves it. Maybe he'll grow up to be a maid.
When the inspector saw this he said in a rather disgusted way, "What is that?" Macie took over telling him all about Ikea where we bought the lights and where you can get mac and cheese and diam candies. He started talking to her about meatballs and didn't seem to mind Daryl's homemade light after all. Thanks Macie.
The room where Daryl spends all his time. Thanks Takagi.
Macie's closet, sans glass door. She put all her clothes away by herself. She really does want to grow up to be a maid. She told us, "I love cleaning more than anyone in the family except Mom."
Beck's room.

A nice blue picture of Jonas.

the house is looking good. i got your message about the apple sauce. i think i saw it in the picture of your kitchen...
Cool house. We'll have to come see it again before any more snow flies.
Looks so sleek. I don't think we're "Moderin" enough to be friends with you! I mean, a cinema paradiso? The sexy chair and the rotter made me laugh so hard. So true, today I'm going to the Farmer's Market to replace all my rotten food. Good job brainwashing Macy to think that cleaning is something to be enjoyed. Your views are amazing!!! I LOVE the snow on the trees. Glad you're finally moved in!
What a beautiful home! Thanks for having us up! It was so fun to visit and let the kids play! Ashtyn wants to know when we get to go to the glass house and swing on the rope swing!!? You'll have to invite us again so we can watch something on the cinema paradiso, while the kids mess up your spotless house! Sorry Macie! Love ya guys!
This is a very cool house and I think you should sell it for 1 million dollars and move to my neighborhood!
No pic’s of the shower, how disappointing. BTW Fallon’s room is a mess and she wants to know if Macie can live with her again so her room stays clean.
