Things are finally finding their place, and it's starting to feel a little like home in here. While it's taken longer than I'd like to admit to put things away and get settled, we've really been enjoying taking it easy and taking our time to set everything up. Douglas's schedule is going to get insane soon enough, so we need to relax while we can. I'm working on doing a little more rearranging and decorating. And I can't wait to share full room pictures soon. For now a few detail shots will have to do.

Working on little projects here and there has helped keep me sane. I've always wanted matching spice jars, so I was really excited to finish these. It's been one of my favorite projects here yet. I've also wanted to display vintage food ads in our kitchen since we got married. I've been collecting them for years, and I love finally having them up. And I can definitely say that my new obsession is our floating wall shelves. I've spent so much time rearranging them already (while I had several other more pressing tasks to attend to).

I'm happy to finally be posting again...and I'm hoping to get back into my schedule next week when Douglas starts work. I have lots of share about our life here so far and things that are happening. Happy weekend!
