To tell you the truth, we weren't even awake to watch the ball drop at midnight! I'll keep this G rated, but as soon as Raymond went to bed, so did we and loved it! :) I hope you all had a great new years celebration together!!!
I LOVE how organized I feel right now. The past month I have been working on many different projects around the house. I have thrown out boxes and boxes of old school work and old letters (which I have no idea why I kept), random papers, clothes, soo much. Just like I have been purging in a lot of other areas in my life, I have felt the need to purge so much of the 'stuff' around us and it has felt great to just get rid of the junk and start fresh! :) I also rearranged our room - I always wanted to have our BIG window showing without the bed in front of it - but because we had a huge bookshelf in the room, we couldn't rearrange it the way we wanted it. SOOO I got rid of the bookshelf - Brandon promised in our next home in the guest room or the 4th bedroom/FROG I can display ALL my books and have a little library - so for now all my books are packed up and away in boxes! :) Here is how the bedroom looks now.
I'll take some better pics soon - I just took this one quick to send to my mama! We still have a lot of things we want to do in there, but at least having things put away and organized is a great start! We got a cute little new file cabinet that works as a nightstand - so combined all our papers that were in separate bins to ONE place which is awesome. I wish I took the picture from the door of the room, to show the height of the ceilings which I love and also how big the room is compared to our old one - but instead I took it from basically the center of the room. There's a hallway behind me that has the closet and then to the right is our master bath. We have been totally blessed this past year. Even through our struggles, family members leaving us to go to heaven and other lows, we have learned from all of them and have grown stronger and closer to the Lord. We have been blessed this year without a doubt - in so many areas, financially, spiritually, physically, in our relationships. God has been so great to us and we look forward to an ever greater 2008!
God bless you all! HAPPY NEW YEAR! :)
My next blog: pictures of some of our Christmas presents and also gifts that mom brought down for me to have, that she found while cleaning out grandma's house.
