Giving Thanks and other random thoughts!

So Thanksgiving has come and gone and I would like to take the chance to say all of the things that I am thankful for. I am thankful for a new house that we adore. I am glad that we have the means to make this happen and for the blessings we have received in conjunction with buying this house. I am grateful to all of my amazing family and friends and for all of the things that they do for me. I love you all! I am especially grateful for my hubby and for the great man that he is. Thanks for loving me and making me feel beautiful. You are the best!

Now as we move on to Christmas I am super excited! I bought a Christmas tree today and all the ornaments for a pretty good price at Tai Pan and I love them. I am really excited to put it up. Maybe I will post a picture when we get it up. We are still trying to unpack boxes and get our house ready so we aren't quite ready to decorate for Christmas, but soon! I went this morning to Kohl's at 4 AM for the whole black Friday madness. Why I did this I am not entirely sure, and I can assure you I wont do it again! The lines were forever long and I waited in line for a while with my cheap Christmas tree and when there was a line mishap I decided to bail on the whole thing and go back to bed. Poor people who work retail, I feel very bad for you! I am not much of a shopper so I'm not sure what I was thinking :) I guess it was good to say I've done it. I went later today with my Mom and Sister to Tai Pan and struck gold so the day went well overall. I am a bit tired though!

Also, as you can see I have attached pictures of our new carpet and painting job. We really really love our house. We are really happy here tucked behind Jordan Landing :) Hope you are all well!

This is our living room, with red wall and the rest tan. Love it!!! Oh and part of our new couch.

This is our bedroom, we love it too!

This pic is the difference in the old carpet vs. new. It doenst do it justice how bad the old was, but the new is much better!
