DINKS again...

well, jeff and I are now "double income no kids" for the second time in our short but o so sweet married life so far. i've just been offered and accepted a position with the Atlanta Women's Foundation as the executive assistant/board liaison to the CEO. I'm so excited! I'll start on march 2nd and will the complete my five month sabbatical from working. the break has been SO GOOD and needed and i'm really thankful for it. Thankful to my hardworking and understanding husband who has been nothing but grateful to me for what i've done around the house while he's at work. It has been nice and i'll miss not having two hours if i want it to cook dinner with new and somewhat complicated and time consuming recipes, working in the yard all day if i want to, having the house all clean and straightened, being home with the dogs who follow me around from room to room, hanging out with my friends who are moms during the day, and being with my sister who lives with us and is home during the day sometimes, etc. etc. But, it's so worth it for our future planning AND i got a job that i will really enjoy, learn from, and maybe even go somewhere with! i feel very blessed.

This post is specifically for my cousin Krista who requested that I take pics of our house and post them since the likelyhood that she'll get to visit (seeing has how they live in Pennsylvania) is small. Sooo, here goes. The new bathroom and donna's room aren't featured b/c I already posted the bathroom and I just haven't taken pics of donna's yet.  Krista, sorry this is about 4 months late.  I think the adjustment to going back to work fulltime definitely took it's toll on my blogging frequency and motivation.

late night.

Jeff worked late last night at home and I fell asleep with Lita in the chair...but woke up when the flash of the camera started. glad Jeff capture this snuggly COZY moment though. I'm pretty sure i look like i'm really young in the sleepy picture. it looks like a pic that was taken when i was a senior in highschool or something.

New Bathroom!

I finally got around to giving this bathroom a little attention. I'm not sure why it took me so long to get in there, but after I did this past friday, I quite enjoyed it! Here are the before pictures. It was all white and sort of haphazard.



And here are the AFTER pictures! Thanks Sharon for my wonderful new shower curtain and fun little accents. I love them!
