Big screen? What big screen?

Reasons why Lee (well, 99.99% Lee and 0.01% Suze) wants to put off buying a big screen:

(Can I get a yee haw?)


(sorry about the head-trippy picture -
I was trying to not get splashed and
take a picture at the same time

It's supposed to be how warm?!

So the high today is expected to reach 77. We live in Florida, I get that ... but it's also 6 days before Christmas.

I had no delusions about this being a White Christmas, but come on ... 77 degrees? Seriously?

(ps: Marci, I'm not sure if you'll read this, but if you do ... last night we got an awesome wine fridge with the gift card you got us for the wedding. We're so excited about it ;))

Success!

We found our plates! And our bowls! And our coffee pot!

Whew, crisis averted.

Making Progress

We haven't really unpacked much (since we've moved in, we only had a few hours at night to unpack). We're living like college students - this morning, I ate cereal out of a Gladware container.

The only things in my kitchen I have easy access to are the things required to make stuffed mushrooms (I made them for two Christmas parties at work; if you're interested, here's the recipe - they're so wonderful). Anything else - such as real [not styrofoam] plates and bowls, the toaster, and the coffee pot - is lost in a sea of boxes.

But who cares? We have our house. (I love saying that...)

Here are some post-painting, pre-unpacking pictures ... enjoy

One half of our box-infested dining room

I love this color. It's the exact shade I was
hoping it'd be. It's brighter during the day
and
really warm at night.

(awww)

I love (LOVE) the color of our bedroom;
it's very peaceful ... very spa-like.

Moving Day

It's official - Lee and I moved into our new (old, but new to us) house! We had about 10 people help us load up the apartment and drop everything off at our house ... all in the span of two hours. It was oh-so impressive. Lee and I were convinced that we'd still be unloading the trucks at noon, but we were done by 9am. It definitely helped that most of the people helping us are either current or former military guys who have perfected the art of moving.

Now we have to decide which comes next - a big dog or a big TV. Oh the decisions.

I'll post some pictures soon!
