Nesting

Over the past few weeks we have been working hard on fixing up our little place. I have been concentrating on the places we are in the most. I thought I would share some before and after pictures. Even though we aren't totally finished, I think we have made a big difference! Also notice the lack of light in the new pictures. Stupid winter!

Living Room Before:





After:




Still to add- large sepia photos above the TV from places we have traveled, sheer taupe curtains in the center of the window, cover for the chair.

Bedroom Before:






After:



Still to add- painted canvases above the bed.

In other news- I'm feeling better today about the GRE thing. Thanks for all your sweet comments. Other than my sister- who finds it funny. Whatever. Anyways, now I am getting ready for the in-laws to come and for our trips. And MAN am I enjoying this break. I could get used to this not working thing....

I'm off to the gym. The cellulite issue is disappearing. AMAZING!

Merry Christmas Eve Eve!

I have to agree with Allison - I thought you were going to say pregnant too! Anyway, I love the changes. It is so nice and cozy. Doesn't it just make being home so much nicer?

ooooohhh... pretty... I really like the quilt in the bedroom. The curtains make such a big difference. I should work on that for my own spaces! :D

Your home looks wonderful. We have very similar tastes. I especially love the bedroom set. Mark would just never agree to a sleigh bed. Men. They just don't get it. Maybe one day I'll get my way!

Merry Christmas! Back in Houston, and I thought of you a little when I saw the weather for christmas day would be in the 70s. I would trade with you if I could!
