Either that or a balloon art installation in the flower bed. To marmer & biggerintexas: It looks to me like the game-room window panes are etched with Picasso’s version of the 3 graces.

Then there's the espalliered ivy along the fence outside the cheerleader-pic room. Strange as it may seem, it feels like Tanglewood. The eyes on those cat pillows keep following me!!! And how cometh this thpinning wheel here? Surely she doesn't make homemade yarn toys for the kitties? What goes up must come down, spinning wheel got to go round...can't wait to find out the litter-scoop on this one. It looks like a high-rise we see out the bathroom window (or is that mirrors?).

The decor/accessories remind me of my cousins' house in SB (except there would be some A & M stuff around) and my interior designer friend's house in Champions. Oddly enough, although the desingner does a fantastic job with other people's houses, her own house looks similar to this one!

The Yellow Rose of Texas front door is clearly thier prized possession and will most likely be an exclusion in the sale. Interesting photo of downtown Houston placed in honor next to the fireplace. I guess they need the picture to remember what downtown looks like, since they don't get there too much these days from thier retirement haven in Baytown.

And this doesn't look like it to me, anyway. It's hard to put into words, but the people who would have this kind of money in the Lake Jackson area would either live in an older, more MCM-style house on a very large lot, or in a nicer, newer house.

Dear homeowner or home purchaser - when you get ready to gut this place I would like to buy some of your cabinets and the tiles from the bathroom. Not joking. Oh, and the green velvet curtains so I can make a Scarlet O'Hara costume. I will pick them up at your place - which I'm guessing is near Knob Hill Park near Gessner and Hammerly.
