We’ve been busy drawing the floor plan for our home before giving it to the architect to give him at least an idea of the home we wanted. It will be a house with 3 small bedrooms in the second floor and a family room in the first floor. We also have a provision for attic. I’ve been checking the Internet for some design ideas for the rooms, most especially the kitchen – my favorite part of the house. I included a kitchen work station where I could do my work in the laptop while cooking. This will also serve as my office where monthly bills will be placed, where weekly menus will be posted, and where cookbooks will be placed. In our current house, I’ve been staying in our bedroom the whole day working on my PC because it is so hot to work downstairs. I will only go downstairs when it is time to cook and eat. I have seen a lot of design ideas for the kitchen, including the pantry and kitchen cabinets. I would also love to use Kohler kitchen sinks to be placed near the gas stove. I have also included a movable kitchen island with breakfast nook.

We are excited to see the final design so that we can submit our home loan application. We are planning to start the construction by yearend. We hope that the bank would grant us our desired loan amount. We’re keeping our fingers crossed. Wish us luck!
