After a very busy and wonderful Christmas, we have been steady working on tons of different projects around the house. Graham ended up taking the week after Christmas off and has been keeping me going. No pj's and LMN for me!
I've been mainly piddling around inside and trying to figure out where I want to put things. We brought the big recliner upstairs, which is nice for us, but not really want I want in our den. One day, when we get the basement "hang out" ready, hopefully we will put it down there and I can get something different upstairs. I'm very thankful we have bedroom furniture and that all of those rooms are mainly done. The rest of the house is another story! It's going to take me forever to get this place furnished how I want it!

| End shelves in the ktichen. I found the owl at Theodore Morris and thought he was so cute! I can't for the life of me get the shelves on the other side looking how I want them... |
 |
| Got this super cute lamp shade at World Market! Loved the colors. |
 |
| Besides hanging the mirror, the foyer is done. I used the rug we had in our office at our old house and got the flowers at Garden Ridge. Really happy with how it's coming along. |
 |
| I think the shelves are just going to be how they are for a while. I've been looking on pinterest at shelves all the time. Who would have ever thought that figuring out where/how to put things would be so difficult. |
Graham installed a new light for us over the sink. I'm really happy with it! It took us long enough to find one! We originally planned to do a can light but because of the studs or something we couldn't do one. I brought home at least 3 or 4 other lights before we finally found this one at Stone Lighting. It's super small, was able to be mounted flush, and gives off plenty of light.

| Love the light...definitely need a valance or something! |
Graham has also cleaned out and reorganized the storage room in the basement. It looks so much better and is way more functional now! Today he started working on the patio. There was an area of broken tile that needed to be cleared out and refilled with concrete. I've ordered a rug to cover the mis-matched patio! I'm hoping it will fit, but I'm afraid the hole got a little bigger than I expected.

We have also officially lost our minds and decided to have a New Year's Eve party over here. Oh my goodness! What were we thinking?!
