{ Weekend Wrap }

we had a handful of weekend visitors. first, parents stopped by to drop off the washer and our new dresser (thanks mom and dad!) then we had a good friend from arizona visit us. we love showing off the new house! we also set up the patio furniture that we got an amazing deal on from cost plus world market (love that store), and i finally put away all my clothes and organized my shoes (yes, it was an entire weekend project). even though it was a short weekend, we still got so much done. can't wait for next weekend!

{ Lovely Gift from Real Estate Agent }

I came home today from a long day at the office to a pretty blue box sitting on the dining room table. Now, if you're a lady there's now way that you can see this blue box and not get the instant giddy-I'm-so-happy feeling. I thought, there's no way we can be buying gifts for each other, we just bought a house!

I ask S where the gift came from and he said it was from our REAL ESTATE AGENT! Have I mentioned yet how much I love that lady? She's pretty awesome and even more awesome now. 

I opened up our lovely gift and it was a set of the most beautiful candlestick holders I had ever seen. 

Now to find the perfect place for them in our new house.....

{ Favorite Bits of the New House }

we finally moved in to the new house! please don't ask me what the old house looks like. i have to go back to the old house every night this week to clean prior to our thursday walk-thru but we're not going to think about that right now. instead i want to share with you all my favorite bits of the new place! my feet are aching and i feel like i didn't have much of a weekend but we're in our new home and i'm beyond excited to fill it with love and laughs!
