Some new things

There have been a few changes in our house.  When Andrew's chair arrived, we decided to move his old chair into our front room.  It was in decent shape, and the furniture store couldn't take it, so we decided to hold on to it.  Adding a chair into our front room required rearranging, and ultimately there will be a table headed to storage.

Additionally, we didn't like how the recliner looked, so we ended up completely rearranging our family room.  As it turns out, I really love the arrangement.  It actually really opens up the space.  I love that we can look out the windows, and I love that our fireplace is now "part" of our room.  We decided though, that the table the TV was sitting on wouldn't work, so we ended up changing out a table in the dining room, and we also moved the wine fridge into the dining room.  There were also a lot of decorations and pictures that needed to be moved.  Lots and lots of changes occurred.  

As much as I hated change, I'm enjoying it right now.  It makes things feel a little fresh, and there are many things I appreciate it about the new arrangement.  It feels peaceful.

Another change...Thomas is officially employed and in the system at the university.  He'll start his new job in two weeks.  We are very proud of him!
