Home Sweet Home

Since we've moved into our apartment, it's gone through quite the transformation. I'm still not "done" decorating, but it sure feels a lot more homey than when we moved in. Here's what it looked like in the beginning:


This was after we had already cleared a TON of boxes from the living room. Luckily, we didn't have any couches at this point, so we had space to organize. We also didn't have a dining room table, so the kitchen counter, which is almost--but not quite-- a bar became our eating place. We did have 2 bar stools, so we ate dinner like this for about a month.


And we relaxed,  played games, and had family home evening around our stack of tubs. It was good motivation to get a couch and table!


 Finally, we got everything put away and chose some furniture we liked. (You can tell that Brent is an amazing husband-- always helping around the house!)


The couches finally got delivered!


And so did our dining room table!


But things didn't seem quite complete, so we got an ottoman.
Then later a side table and shelf / future TV stand (because we still don't have a TV),
and we rearranged everything. I still want to buy a lamp and hang some pictures, but now it feels like home!



 And here's a shot of our bedroom. I love our fluffy, blue comforter!

Oh my goodness, Sarah, it is so pretty! I've been in my house about as long as you, and I'm not even close! Wow, I love how you decorate. It looks very serene.

P.S. Your pizza and salad dinner looks awesome.
