What's Goin On...

Haven't had many new pics to post, here are highlights of the week:
1. Made and Offer on a GREAT House! I'm SO excited... won't hear back until probably Tuesday the 25th... waiting on pins and needles (yes that's longer than normal)
2. Had great Activity Day obstacle course on Wed night, lots of fun sports and balls and active stuff - Gavin got to come and had a BLAST
3. Met up with old friend - still friends, very good.
4. Watched Gavin watch football. It's fun to do... Sunday we watched Seahawks (yes it was depressing) and he played with all his footballs... we turned on the Yankees and he got out his baseballs and plastic bat.. I love watching him learn - my boy is a sports guy - good thing!
5. Watched the Animal Alphabet video at least once a day - 45 minutes of animals and cheesy rhyming songs. Very cool --- Gavin love it anyways.
Pics of the house will be up after the offer is accepted on or before Tuesday!!! I can't wait! already thinking about colors for the living room... maybe a warm orangey peachy?

Hmmm...a decorating question. Now there's something I know something about, at least compared to Seahawks football! LOL

My advice (since you asked! haha) is to find a fabric that you love, either on your couch or pillows or curtains or something, and make all the other choices based on that. So if you don't have a couch, wait to see what kind of a free couch you can find. Then you might want to get a nice, neutral slipcover and have colorful pillows on it. IKEA sells lots of great fabrics to use for stuff like that, and it's cheap for home decor fabric. Anyways, it would be backwards to pick a paint color and then try to find furniture and accessories to match the paint, you know?

Speaking of painting, we finally finished painting the big wall between the kitchen and front room yesterday! Hurray for us!! :) We got 2 other walls painted, so we're making progress....slowly!!
