"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved." Ephesians 1:3-6

Improvements

Some things we've been doing around the house.....

Got an area rug!  Decided Shag was the best option for all the little people that will be tumbling and spilling on it:)



 
 
You can't move into a new home and not make a trip to Ikea, right? :)
 


 
 



We bought shelving units for the front room, which we are calling the 'school room'.  We needed storage for all the school and craft supplies.  These are fitting in perfect--

It was a semi pinterest-inspired idea--the little bench in the middle is actually a bookshelf turned on it's side.  I will sew a cushion for it! We plan to put little baskets on the shelves that are visible.  I'm still looking for an area rug and some cheap chairs that I could paint for the table.  It's a work in progress!

Bought some paint samples and decided what color we want to paint the walls!

We decided the light gray will be the family room walls with a 'pop' of white in certain places and the yellow will be the kitchen.  Kay Walden was kind enough to offer her interior decorating advice and I was glad she liked our color choices!! :)

Photos of the progress will be posted....
