At one point at Christmas everyone was gathered in the kitchen around the big island with my wife cooking the dinner in the ovens without having to kick everyone out or constantly move everyone out of the way.BDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17831914806525111506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257879163671507431.post-34260777846359572962011-12-30T18:54:25.726-08:002011-12-30T18:54:25.726-08:00I'm so glad to hear it went well!

The kids were in the morning room. And us 20-30 somethings at the bar and "boom-a-rang" island. The food was set out on the other side of the island and along all the counters and it worked great for us. (we do have a morning room but no basement here). Entertaining is much easier in this house. And like you, the open plan helps! <br /><br />I'm glad your holidays went great. Happy New Year!Noey814https://www.blogger.com/profile/01066260457481965588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257879163671507431.post-18444395994148910512011-12-28T18:40:48.705-08:002011-12-28T18:40:48.705-08:00Doesn't sound weird to me at all.

They are beautiful, but they were redundant for us. We were much better off getting all six bedrooms, three of which are quite large. <br /><br />We haven't been hosting much in this house - mainly just friends of the children. I can't wait until we move in and have a party-worthy house!<br /><br />Congratulations again!Tammigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04000047709047394034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2257879163671507431.post-65661001006155464802011-12-28T04:45:45.488-08:002011-12-28T04:45:45.488-08:00This post just builds excitement for our house.

I am already telling out of state family to come visit.

We are part of a car club and we can get quite a few to show up. We also have decent size families so holidays will be fun.Gina K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13211200395695932014noreply@blogger.com
