Hard At Work

More and more things are getting done! I'm beginning to really fall in love with our home :).

I was able to talk my mother-in-law into writing on my chalkboard using her beautiful penmanship. Didn't she do a good job?

I just love this quote by David Meeks. It struck me when I read it for the first time. P.S. That's a new chair the photo above :).

I also got a chance to hang a window that was given to us when we were living in Nashville.
Here's before:

And after:

:) I knew it made a difference, and I loved it when we hung it, but I'm still delighted to see the before and after pictures! To see them side by side makes me love it even more! I can't wait to see the rest!

You can also see your new kitchen nook chandelier in the second pic. (Just my editor's eye for detail.)

I love your house! That mirror & chalkboard are perfect. And I just have to tell you- I have your CD on repeat & it's such an inspiration to me.

Okay really random question...(hee hee I used the word random, am I cool or what) anyhoo..... What type of chalk markers are you using. I am spending way to much money trying to find the right ones and Chili's and Starbucks are giving me funny looks when I ask what they are using. Okay give me a funny look too!
