The house itself, we want to keep it until we cant have it anymore.
We want to be there until we can’t be there anymore.
Its our forever home, which Ive never had before.
And in this house, were celebrating the imperfections of everything.
So those areas I want to not erase them, I want those to be levels that people see.
We didnt want that.
What I don’t want to do is have it look like Colonial Williamsburg.
And I dont think we would.
For instance, Im trying to do things as green as possible even though thats almost impossible.

So we ordered a lot of stuff ourselves.
We organized all that.
