Around Our House


This is our cute house. We have finally uploaded pictures over the last few months and are throwing a few on here!



Our front stoop during the fall and Guster sniffing around.

Guster in the leaves.

Me in our kitchen making Christmas Mushrooms.



Our Christmas decor.

A lap blanket I made this last year. It took me a while to buy all the yarn. It's not perfect, but I like the imperfections. They make it look cooler I think.


A bookshelf I got from my work. I recovered almost all the shelves in old vintage wallpaper that can be better seen in the below picture.



Those two above are of an antique quilt box we got for Christmas from Steven's Aunt. It matches our headboard perfectly but, unfortunately, our bedroom is too small to get it at the foot of the bed. Someday when we have our own place we'll be able to get it all together and it'll look like a cute country bedroom.


This windowbox is Guster's favorite haunt in the summer where we can watch birds and bees in the apple tree just outside and get lots of sun. I love that that couch fit in there so perfectly. It's a great place on summer days to lie and read and take Sunday naps. It's too cold in the winter because of all the windows.

Last but not least, my cute little hubby working away on his homework. Isn't he just darling?

Your place looks so wonderful and comfy. I wish I could see it in real life. You're a good decorator. I would hire you. And I am so impressed by the blanket you made. It is really cool. Thanks for posting pictures. It's nice to kind of know what's happening in your life.
