slow times

I needed to post something b/c those pictures have been up on the blog for a while. Things have been really slow this month. Mainly just working and still settling in to the house. These pics were from Magnolia Plantation and I thought they would be a nice change of scenery.

New Furniture

I have had my eye on a media stand at World Market for some time but just couldn't bring myself to pay what they were asking. Well they just had their furniture sale and I got the media stand and two bookshelves for cheaper than the original price of the media stand. I also have been in the market for a computer desk that was small but could fit all the computer parts in it. Well I lucked out b/c they also had what I was looking for at World Market. We have spent a few days putting the pieces together and it was pretty simple to do. I put the desk together by myself. I also got this picture a World Market and I need to try an few places to see where I want it. We haven't put anything on our walls yet b/c I just like looking at the paint.

Magnolia Plantation

This past week my dad, sister and brother-in-law were in town and we went to Magnolia Plantation. It has great gardens and was a great outdoor experience. I want to go back when everything is blooming. There are 3 large plantations near us and several more in the general area. I think we might get a pass for January so we can go and visit them all. They can be pretty expensive and unless you are a tourist most locals won't pay the actual admission cost. I am taking Josh back there this weekend b/c if you do get a ticket you can go back again within 7 days for free and he had to work the day we went.
