Craigslist

Recently, craigslist.org has become my best friend. Matt and I recently bought a wooden kitchen table on clearance. I love it! But is has no chairs. So I have been scouring the ads on craigslist for chairs. My intent is to get six mix-matched chairs and paint them all one color to tie them together. Maybe white? Or blue? Probably white. It's versatile. I'll send you some before and after pics...once I get the chairs. ;)
How I wish I had my sisters here with me to rummage through the local antique/thrift stores! I like going on my own, but it's so much nicer to share things you love with people you love.
Matt and my sister-in-laws are here in OKC with me, but they're all at work. I think I just need to get back to school. And get busy. Hello, last semester of nursing school! Woohoo!
But that's not until next week. Today, I think I'm going to check out a few antique stores. ;)

Gingerbread

Yesterday, Matt and I made gingerbread cookies! It is so wonderful being back together. I love cooking with him!!

We're definitely ready to close on our new house (hopefully next week!) and get all of our stuff out of storage. But for now, a glass works just fine for a rolling pin!
He did all the hard work. I just enjoyed them. ;) 

We both had wonderful Christmases with each of our families. We received thoughtful gifts, many of which we've already put to good use! Most of all, we loved being together with all of our family. Looking forward to another blessed year!!
