We moved into our very own bedroom this past weekend! Horray!! We've finally moved out of the kitchen and in our very own bedroom, and it feels SO nice! =) Ok, so the photo probably doesnt do it justice but after countless hours of patching, caulking, sanding, sawing and painting... the room was in good enough shape to live in; and that's good enough for us! We still have to put on outlet faceplates, install our ceiling light/medallion, finish the door casings and purchase our closet doors. Not to mention decorating! I have plenty of ideas, now I just need to find the time to help make the room truly look finished... but in time I suppose.
The other monumential occurance is that since we moved our bed out of the kitchen, we were able to move our couch and tv in to take it's place! We haven't had a couch/tv in about 3 months, so it's very nice to have that pair back in our lives. Justin and I made a realization while living without these things just how truly lucky and blessed we are to have such luxuries in our lives. Most of the world lives with very little 'space' and very little 'things', yet we live in abundance here in America. For most people here, having a family room with a tv is just a standard way of life. This experience has once again humbled us and shown us how lucky we really are. We are so blessed to have a home of our own and the freedoms to make it exactly what we want. And for that, we are thankful to God.
