Spring Break Home Updates

Today, with the generous help of mom and dad, John and I got the bedroom painted a nice neutral color.  We were also able to move the sewing table formerly in the office down to the back room of the basement.  Who knows what will eventually be done with the table, but we have a nice bookshelf set up in the office now.  Goodness knows that John and I have enough books between the two of us, so the extra space will be great.

All that is left in the bedroom is to find some wall hangings and a new light fixture.  Any recommendations for something that can replace what we have?

On top of the painting and the furniture rearrangements, we also had some of our new furniture delivered!  The coffee table, end tables, and accent chair are new- bought yesterday at HOM with the help of our solid saleslady, Mary Jo.

The tables actually match the t.v. stand and the legs of the new furniture really well.  In addition to these pieces, we also bought a chair (which will go where the giant green chair is now) that matches the sofa, but that won't get in stock until April.

I'm so excited that everything is coming together.  In wedding news, we're sending save the dates this week via email.  A friend from law school sent me her save the date from last year and they were through a great website called paperless post (http://www.paperlesspost.com/).  Lots of great options and definitely more wallet friendly than the traditional post.
