Gratitude Friday


It is Friday again, and it has been a busy week!  We enjoyed lots of visiting this week.   Our new friends, Tim & Carola, joined us for dinner Sunday night.  On Monday night, my parents came for dinner, and Dad installed a new light fixture in the bathroom for me.  Thank you Dad!!

Here's another sneak preview (old vs new).  :)


Oh, and the paint colour survey results so far:


I am tentatively planning to buy paint on Monday, although the survey results are in no way binding on my decision. :)  If I don't chose the colour you voted for, chalk it up to lighting differences since it is a picture!

Yesterday, Pastor Greg, Charity and kiddos came for dinner - good fun.  I also rather impulsively decided to rearrange the living room furniture yesterday.  I'm not one to move furniture around a lot (much to Rob's relief) but I've never been completely satisfied with how we had it arranged.  Certain seating combinations meant you could not see some people.  So, yesterday I decided to just try something different.  When I was done, I had to do this.


I was expecting Rob to arrive after the B's, and I didn't want him to be too shocked, especially if he didn't like it!

Turns out Rob does like it!  We might do a bit more tweaking (particularly lighting) but on the whole we are both happier with it.  Yay for impulsive furniture moving!

Lastly, tonight is the annual Valentine's Dinner at church, hosted by the Young People.  They always do a great job and we're really looking forward to it!

That's awesome. I can NOT, I repeat, can NOT change around our home without written permission from Jon. :) Glad it turned out well.

We will, of course, require photos of the rearrange living room photos! :D
