Making it Ours!

We're almost finished the painting/wallpapering we planned to do when we moved into our new house.

The former Nursery has turned into a nice little Office.

That's a white board painted on the wall behind Steve. The office still needs a few little things before it's finished.

- the shelves in the built-in bookshelf need to be cut to fit properly

- some appropriate office furniture (chair, printer stand, etc)

- a few pictures on the wall

The second bedroom (AKA the Library/Guest Room/Amy's Office) has been changed from the bright red and blue Thomas the Tank Engine motif to a more grown-up/relaxing white room.

this is a close up of the wallpaper:

We bought a new couch to go in the Living room (for now).

It is actually a futon, so it will eventually end up in the second bedroom. But for now, it is in the Living room. It has 3 positions: couch, bed, and double lounger. We love it!

We have decorated the house for Christmas, even though all of my Christmas things are still in Alberta.

Despite having very limited decorations, I think it looks CUTE!

Here is our tree...

And here is our Fireplace (with our new mirror):

and here is a close up of the little topiary ornaments that I think are the cutest things I've ever seen!

I really love our house!
