Well, it’s official — we’re home owners!  We closed on the house 2 weeks ago, and we’re so anxious to make this house a home.  We’re realizing that it will definitely take some time to get the walls painted and furniture in place, but it will happen, in time :)

We’ve at least made the house livable with a new refrigerator, washer/dryer, and blinds.  They all look great, and we are so grateful for our families who got these for us as house warming gifts.  The hardest part for me will be the decorating.  I know I’m a graphic designer, but designing a website is a lot different than designing a room!  We’ve gone to every furniture store we can think of and I think we’re close to deciding on a couch and club chairs for the living room.

The fun part for me will be choosing paint colors.  I already know I want to do wallpaper in the master bedroom, and possibly some faux painting in my office.  I’ll wait until we get furniture to decide on the final colors, though.  It’s easier to change paint than it is to change fabric!  In time everything will come together, but for now, we’re taking one room at a time.
