Christmas Decor!

Today Bruce and I decorated the house for our holiday party next weekend and it turned out so great! Bruce really knows how to work the garland! Seems like he's a pro!

My parents lent us the nice pillows and gave us little christmas nick knacks that really added to the overall look. Bruce's mom sent him back with the gold reindeer and I think they are super cute! My mom finally convinced me to take all my childhood ornaments and I'm so glad that I did. They look great on the tree. Bruce said next year he would bring back HIS childhood ornaments because by the time I told him about mine, his were on his parents tree :)

I think it's great that both of our parents have the same ornament tradition - where we get one every year to help start our own collections. We will for sure pass that tradition on to our children.

Someone looks tired!

Ok we both look tired, ha! Happy Sunday!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Super busy week = lazy bones weekend

After a really busy week and weekend, we've been relaxing a bit today and Elvis is loving every moment of it - clearly. Elvis is getting more snuggly the older he gets. Maybe it was his near death experience that has brought him closer to us. He's never liked to get under the covers in the past, but now he really likes it. It's funny how much pets change over time. He's such a sweet boy. Happy Sunday everyone. WHO DAT?!

PERKS!

My boss gave me a gift card to Crate & Barrel that was left over from a commercial. An intern returned some props and instead of asking for a check for the refund, asked for a gift card. SO, whenever this happens we have gift cards to cool places! We also had a coupon to Crate & Barrel so we decided to purchase something cute for the living room. Since the couch is beige, I wanted something with color that pops. So, we got a $50 blanket for free! I can't justify paying $50 for a throw blanket, not now in my life, so this worked out great! Needless to say, Elvis LOVES HIS new blanket :)

Lazy Labor Day

After a busy fun filled weekend, all we want to do is relax. Unfortunately, Bruce and I both have work to get done today. Elvis is still in chillax mode. He is so happy we are home one more day this weekend. Happy Labor Day y'all!

Guest Bedroom!

My mom brought us a comforter this afternoon for the guest bedroom and it looks pretty great in there! I am so excited to have this room somewhat decorated. All of our furniture pieces and decorations came from all different people (me, Bruce, my mom and my boss) but with everything combined, I think the room looks great! We still have to hang stuff on the wall, and put more pictures out, but it's not a bad start! I am SO SICK of moving and unpacking I finally just called it quits this afternoon. There is only so much one can do! Plus I feel like I have inhaled more dust then anyone ever should. I was cleaning everything in sight this weekend but cleaning a house is way different then cleaning an apartment. It takes FOREVER. Ahhh, gotta love growing up!
