Catherine Ann's Room


Since we got the new apartment, I couldn't wait to start getting Catherine Ann's room ready! So, it begins... :-) Mom and I went to the paint store to look at samples and see which color would look best. I had decided that I wanted to paint her room a light pastel green and then use brown and pink as the accent colors in her room. When we were looking at paint samples, I fell in love with this color. I took several samples home to Nick and let him pick out his favorite too. Apparently...great minds think alike! He picked the same color I had chosen as my favorite! :-) So, this past Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, we painted her room. Above are pictures I took. All in all, we are very pleased with the outcome. :-) Now I can't wait to start decorating!!

Latest Update!

I know it's been a while since my last post, so now it's time for an update! :-)

On Friday, Nick and I drove around looking at a couple different apartments to move into after our lease ran out on our house at the end of May. Well - we came across an apartment that was being offered at a really good rate and the special ended on Saturday, 2/14. After thinking through everything, we knew it was something we couldn't pass up on! So, we went and signed the lease on Saturday and now we have two establishments for the next 3 months! The good thing about it is that we will end up saving money in the long run - isn't that great news! :-) And, another good thing is - I can start decorating baby Catherine Ann's room (painting, etc...) before any funiture or other knick knacks are moved in!

What else...well - for Valentine's day, Nick cooked steak dinner. It was delicious! Then, that night, I surprised him with tickets to go see the Freestyle motocross event at the FedEx forum. :-) We had a blast!

This is the only update I have for now! Check back soon! :-)
