Auburn Symphony Home Tour

The weather was beautiful and I traded with my store help to take Saturday off. Chip and I bought tickets to attend the Home Tour. I'm always invited to do fashion shows for the Symphony League and wanted to support their fundraiser. There were 3 homes in the Winchester Subdivision in Meadow Vista. Mind you, these are "mini mansions" and the lots alone are over a mil.. One home was 8,000sq ft for 2 people. It was a LODGE home and the use of rocks, stones and wood was incredible. What they did in their kitchen cost more than my home was new! We had a good day, especially when we don't have a lot of time to spend together. I usually work one day during the weekend and Chip has weekends off.
I do have some pretty nifty ideas now for my little house. I think that's why Chip went with me, to protect his interests ($$$$). I usually do what I want anyway and since my husband doesn't have any decorating cents, if it was left up to him, we'd be sitting on blue milk crates covered in 1970's Mexican blankets!!!!
