living room update

For months (almost a year actually since we've bought our house last December) I've been waiting to hang something over our sofa. I wanted to buy ledge shelves but I wanted to wait until I actually found them on sale. So $25.00 later, I left from World Market last week with two shelves that were 50% off and I couldn't wait to get hung over our sofa. While Taylor was home for a few days last week, we got them placed right on the wall and then I was able to take a couple of trips to Hobby Lobby to get frames. One trip was to frame our favorite engagement picture with us on the black fence that cost under $50.00. And another to purchase the other five frames for under $25.00 since the frames were all 50% off last week too! So I printed the pictures at Costco for the other five frames for less than $3.00 today and now the project is finished. I am so happy with the way that it turned out and just decided to add a few of my little pumpkins that I had laying around the house for some color. I'm obviously proud of the way that it turned out since it's the first picture of our house or my decorating that I've posted on this blog. Maybe sometime soon we are going to be getting new living room furniture and I'll actually let you see that too!! I just have to find something that I like first! 

Miley Girl

Look how sweet our little Miley is! She is now 7 months and growing to be such a precious dog. My mom and step dad have been in town just about every weekend since Auburn Football kicked off and so she enjoys spending time with them all weekend. And since Taylor has been home during the week and gone on the weekends, I've enjoyed the company, too!! (Taylor invested in a new camera and has enjoyed trying to capture Miley in her element!)









So other than that, not much news! I've been decorating for fall and trying to get some things organized a little more to my liking. I said that I was going to be a little more frequent with my

updates but there really hasn't been much to post. We did buy a dog house for Miley but I am trying to not talk about her all the time.

Taylor and I celebrated 6 months of marriage and one year since we got engaged on Monday night. It's really hard for me to believe that this much time has already gone by. So much is different in our lives than they were a year ago and we are truly better for the changes that the Lord has made (most of you know what I'm talking about).

I am off to enjoy one more night with Taylor before he leaves on tour again!
