Baby It's Cold Outside

Well it is January 10th and we are officially experiencing our first big snow. A little behind schedule don'tcha think? Jeff has told me that I shouldn't leave today so I'm not!

So, so far this is what I've done today.

Taken photos of the snow... (You cannot tell that it is still snowing in this, but I promise it is)

Made some toast and a really poorly poached egg. It was my first time, don't judge.

And now I get to spend the day with these fur babies. Aren't they cute??

Maybe I'll do something productive today. Mehhh.

Stay warm today!

Almost there!

So I pretty much have the blue wall done! I just need to peel off the tape after it dries and do any touch ups. Here is a preview...

I do want to add that this photo's lighting is not that great. I took this mid afternoon and thats when the sun is on the other side of the house. Once we have a mantel I'll post a better photo. This color is called Covington Blue. The shade is by Benjamin Moore, but I hated the consistency of the testers paint so I had it color matched at Home Depot in the Behr formula.

This photo is probably a truer representation of the color. Shadow was a good helper by the way.

I really want to get a bunch of these for the living room. They're pretty cool. Apparently I inherited my mothers love for pretty junk. Oops.

Furniture!

I'm really excited to announce that I finally own a table! If you know me personally you know that we didn't have room for one in the last house, and that we have yet to buy one for our kitchen. So this is our new patio set! This was our compromise on Jeff's comfy plastic woven seats, and my desire for wrought iron.

I'm really happy with our choice, especially since those chairs rock and spin! I'm trying to figure out a nice flower arrangement I can put on top, hopefully I'll find something awesome. Jeff is hoping to be able to resurface the top of our deck. I'll post before and after photos of that. Maybe even some nice sweaty photos of Jeff while he's at work :).

One more thing...

Can anyone explain my dogs' affinity for hiding under furniture?? This is how they take naps, it's quite hilarious.
