Getting Settled In To Our House

Finally we are back in our house and getting settled in. We slowly moved all of our furniture back in. We have a lot less than we used to because we sold a bunch of things before we left. We also have a couple rooms painted.The color in the family room is called "Golden Leaf". We chose it to match this wall hanging from India. My friend Angela from Peace Corps said I needed to start from an inspirational piece and I have always loved this wall hanging.

We are holding out for the right couch (well, and maybe some money to buy the couch with), but for now we are using Grandpa and Grandma Rolig's lime green chairs. The pillow cases are from Malawi. The lamps are new from Target.

Here is Brian in Grandpa Rolig's chair. Jack and Carol will have to verify if he has the pose down right. The side table is from Malawi and it flips over to a chess board (many thanks to Katie and Nick for dragging that thing back!)

The dining room was painted "Mushroom Bisque", but the color doesn't show up very well in this picture. We also scored this bookshelf thing off of Craig's List.

Look for more posts soon! Now that we have internet and our computer up and running we should be able to give more updates.
