Settling In!

I posted a bunch of pics of our new house on facebook, so I thought I would post here first this time with more detail. Here is our master bedroom. We updated the bedding, and were able to add a chair to our room here! Yay for space!! I have plans to cover the two pillow forms in the chair with green covers and accent the bed with some green pillow cases. We are updating our family pictures as we unpack them and will have those up in black and white soon!

Here is our dining room. I love how elegent it looks! These curtains were in our den in our Alabama house. They go so well in here! Love it. The only thing I have left to do in here is to hang up some old family pics from both sides of our family. And I want to do some yard saling and find some vintage looking frames.

This is the hall bath/guest bath/Sophie's bathroom. It's pretty straight forward as it stands. But we have plans to add wainscoating, paint and molding.

Here is the media room. We are furtunate that we have the space for additional den type area here. Hank mounted a flat screen above the toy closet. Other plans for this room include hanging all of Hank's Alabama stuff, including his Daniel Moores. And since that's a sofa bed, this is also another guest room.




We've been working on the boys' room for a while now. And we finally feel like it's coming together. We upgraded the twin bottom bunk, to a full sized mattress set and got them new bedding.
We upgraded the bulky old style computer monitor with a little flat screen tv/computer monitor for their room. We feel like as they get older, the computer is going to come into play more and more for homework and other pasttimes. We bought the table at IKEA. It will actually fold down if we needed it to. Then we framed it with some shelves we already had.




Well, that's some of our new home. All rooms still need pictures hung. A few need paint jobs. And Hank and I have some projects we would like to do... but overall, we are more and more comfortable here.

Small victories are being won every day. And just yesterday, when I asked the boys how they felt about where we lived now, they said, "It's awesome!"
