Pantry with a Loading Dock!

My brother and sister-in-law are currently dreaming of their future house that they would love to build on a farm that they purchased a couple of years ago.  My brother came up with a brilliant idea!!

A pantry with a loading dock!

The plan is to have the pantry and the garage share the same wall.  When my brother and sister-in-law get home from the store, they can open a small door from the garage that leads to the pantry.

Imagine it, carrying in all of the groceries without setting foot in the house - Brilliant!!

Locker Furniture

I am not sure if our boy will want this furniture, but I really like it! At least through 8th grade, maybe even into highschool!

I feel it might inspire him to get into his studies and see that it is an important part of his childhood.

I also think that having a place to study is very important.  Having his own desk in his room he would have his own quiet space to finish his homework.

And how neat, then, to have all of the furniture matching his studious desk - his bed, his dresser, his night stand!  How fun!

It might even be neat to get a regular tall locker for him to place his coat and backpack!  I am liking this - now to convince my boy!
