The "great room switch" pretty much consumed our weekend, and friends, it was hard work. It's amazing how much stuff (and dust) surfaces when you're moving things around. I used an entire box of swiffers over two days and packed four giant bags for the Goodwill. Where was this stuff lurking before?? It's perplexing.The rooms are almost done...the "lounge green" is on the walls, the furniture, books, closets and dressers have been switched out, and all that's left is putting in the "magic touches". Audrey's space is pretty sparse right now, we need to sprinkle a little whimsy in there, and then I'll do a full room tour for you guys.
In the meantime, a few sneak peeks...
In other weekend news, we experienced a few "firsts" over the past couple of days. There was Millie's first sushi (which she totally dug), our first fall weather on Sunday (cool and blissful) and our first bike ride since early summer (prompted by that blissful weather).Our friends Julie and Tim came to dinner Saturday bearing a big pot of their famous bolognese sauce, and I sincerely believe it magically shepherded in the long-awaited cool snap... After the pasta, we had chocolate mousse cake (which they also brought*) and then lit sparklers on the patio.
It was good stuff.
*yes, we made take-and-bake pizzas for our friends last weekend and this weekend our friends brought all the food. Sad, I know...
