We put THINGS on our walls!

Alright, so maybe this isn't THAT big of a deal but I am pretty excited.

As we've been doing this and that all over the house I can't help but feel that nothing is FINISHED. There are little "projects" that need to be done and tweaked everywhere and sometimes it can become a bit... unsettling. Obviously this is something that comes with being a new homeowner but dammit, I want something to feel homey! I want this place to feel like our home and not just our house. It was time to set some of Mr's home improvement projects aside and at least get to a little bit of decor.

So yay! Now we have some things on our walls!

We got this lovely little piece from my mom for Christmas. We hung it in our entryway on the wall in front of our stairs.

On my Brief Hiatus

Well... that was quick. Started a blog, things got busy, and then I got SICK and thus went away all that regular posting I had started! Whoops!

Sorry about that! The craziness never stops but the cold from hell seems to be making its way away from me (good riddance) and it is time to get back on schedule!

Upcoming posts include some before/after photos on all of our house progress, some new things we have added here and there, and the starting of WEDDING PLANNING (dun dun dunnnnnn). I am getting much better about taking photos as things progress so I may actually have some real house photos. Hurray!

Anyway, that's the update. Sorry for the lack of posting. I was doing so well! I plan on getting back to 2-3 posts a week very soon. Thanks for your patience!

Anniversary Gift Reveal! (And a trip down memory lane)


The Mr. really outdid himself this year.

I mean he really, really outdid himself this year.

I waited 3 days for this to ship. What a nightmare! Picture: Personal
