More pictures

Here are some pictures of the interior of the house. We borrowed one of Emiliy's chairs to see how that looked around the island but it's just a little too dark so we'll keep looking.

The family room color is almost exactly the same color as our old family room--I guess this house was meant to be ours.

The screened-in porch will be a nice place to sit on a warm evening

The ceilings are all very high. In the living room, they are about 12 feet, the kitchen/family room and our bedroom are all 10 feet, and the rest of the house is 9 feet. So we should stay fairly comfortable even when the AC is running.

We are New Mexico homeowners! It's hard to believe that we'll be leaving Emily's home for our own home in Los Lunas. We are about 3.5 miles from Emily (on the other side of the freeway). The house is a single story Spanish Territorial style. It's U-shape with the bedrooms (3) on one side of the house. The living/dining room is in the center (along with a den) with the kitchen and family room on the other side. There is also a screened-in porch off the kitchen. From all the rooms in the back, we have gorgeous views of the Manzano and Sandia Mountains. Our stuff from Olympia will be delivered on April 12. We are anxious to have visitors join us in the "Land of Enchantment".
