New Home

We are finally beginning to feel a bit settled in our new abode! We could not be happier with our home decision. I feel this home could not be more perfect for us even if we had built it ourselves! I can't wait to document how it changes and evolves over the next few years. Making a house a home is so special.

There are several ideas I have going on in my "decorating" mind, but I will have to do a little bit at a time. Currently, my next to-do will be to give some TLC to several pieces of old furniture that were my grandparents'. One in particular I am most excited about is refinishing nana Joy's china cabinet!! I cannot explain how much I love china cabinets. I moved what I consider to be my "casual cabinet" to the kitchen in this particular home since I had room. Therefore making a perfect spot for a more "formal" look in my dining room. It will bring me so much joy to have a little piece of her in my most favorite room in the house.

The sole reason of us moving home was to be closer to our family. Since moving in 2 months ago, we have hosted 2 family get togethers. One for my dad's birthday which I didn't get any pictures of :( and one dinner in honor of my in-laws anniversary. I love getting to serve and host our families. 

Happy Anniversary to the Simpsons (38 years!) 

A Festive Autumn! 

A little preview of the work in progress dining room. Even though it is my favorite, it won't be complete until my china cabinet makes her arrival. 

Christmas in our new home ---coming soon!
