What's Been Going On

It has been forever since I have updated. Im sorry, but there is just nothing exciting going on right now in our lives. We live a simple life, and I am thankful. We are not planning a big event, not pregnant, and we don't have a lil munchkin to document. So there 'ya go, it's just us... and it's fine, but boring when reading about it. 

We have not been up to a lot. Our life consist of going to work, coming home and either cooking or picking up supper, and then hanging out. That may sound boring and easy. Let me tell ya- I feel like the evenings fly by! I usually don't leave school until later, run a few errands, come home, figure out supper, shower, pick out clothes for the next day, and then hit the bed. I try to get in the bed by 10 each night... because if I don't 22 5 and 6 year olds will absolutely wear.me.out. So that pretty much sums up our week. On the weekends Tim and I are enjoying doing little house projects. Here is what we have been doing lately-
This is a coffee table that has been in my mom and dad's garage for about 10 years now. It was my great grandmothers. I wish I would have gotten a picture of it before Tim sanded it, but this is what we began working with. He spent an afternoon sanding it down continuously until he got it perfect. 

This is what it looks like now...
It's a pretty crappy picture, but I am too impatient to do it again. The two slates on either end will be replaced soon. We are trying to figure out exactly what we are going to do. Maybe just glass across, not sure. But we are happy with it and Tim is super proud of his first project.

It seems to be that I can't go shopping anymore without buying something for the house. Funny how things change. Before the wedding, I was buying lots of clothes, shoes, jewelry, etc. Now I am obsessed with buying home decor. I guess I am getting old. So, here is my last purchase from this weekend.
A new shower curtain! Of course it's black and white, but I love it. Especially because I paid $14.00 for it from TJ Max! Steal!

I also got pretty sick of our table arrangement in the dining room. Yes, I am aware it has only been 1 month, but it just wasn't working out for me. So-- I ventured off to Pier 1 to get a little something new....
I am loving the lazy susan we got from Swoozies! 

So, that's it folks. For tonight at least.
