we should be starting in to some of our projects at the new house. I am so excited (and a little nervous!) about this exciting change.

New House Excitement
One of the main reasons Tim and I were so interested in the house we are buying is the almost half acre yard (which is not very common any more in the suburbs around us.)
Half of the backyard is fenced in, perfect for the dog we plan on getting next spring and for my small children that like to wandering off. We plan building a huge sandbox
I'm excited to have all of this wonderful outdoor entertain space. I really hope we have the money (and find a really good deal on) some outdoor furniture, since we only have patio table and chairs. I'm not really sure what I would pick out, even without a budget. It looks like I'll have to scope out some ideas on pinterest. Any recommendations on where to find some fun pieces?
The built-in fire pit is another exciting feature. I can't wait to have our first party next spring.

4 more days. . . .
Until we close on our new house! I can't wait! And then 13 more days until we move in completely. It will go by fast.
One of our first projects once we move in is to take down the horrible wallpaper in the two upstairs bedrooms. I wish I had pictures of the horrible 1980s floral loveliness. I'll post some after we close.
The boys have decided that they would like to continue to share a room for now. (Carter was concerned that Jack might get scared at night without him.) I plan on painting the walls of their room blue, but I'm not exactly sure what shade yet. I'm toying with the idea of a pirate- themed room, but I'm not 100% sure on how to make it cute, but not cheesy.
Choosing a master bedroom color is a much more difficult choice. Our current bedding from when we got married 6 years ago. The pattern is Calvin Klein Bamboo Flowers.
Tim and I both still like the design, but after six years the bedding is starting to show some wear. I'd love to paint our bedroom something that works with our current bedding, but would be fine with what we might choose for new bedding. Tim is extremely fussy about colors and patterns, so it's going to be challenge to find something we both like.
