Hot Sunday

Happy Sunday everyone. It’s been a good day. After Sunday school and church, my sister and I came back to the house and had lunch together and visited for a while. After Melanie left, I went out to Mandy & Brad’s house. We girls wanted to do a little bit of shopping and then Piper wanted me to watch a movie with her. We watched the new Disney movie “Raya and the last Dragon.” It was really good. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I enjoyed it. Probably the best part was lying on the couch with Piper cuddled up next to me and both of us covered with a blanket. The blanket sounds ridiculous since it was hot today, but it felt good with the air conditioning and sitting under the ceiling fan. Moments like this make the move worth it every time. Afterwards I came home and spent a couple of hours with Mom. I have two more days before I fly away to Spokane. I hope we don’t have any of those people you see on the news who get in fights with the flight attendants over masks!

I thought I would share a few photos of our new living room furniture. I finally remembered to take pictures during the daylight hours.

To my eyes it looks a bit crowded but then again, I was used to it with no furniture at all. My sister really likes the loveseats and might order two of them. Mandy says they’re the most comfortable couches she has ever sat on! I have to agree.

Dennis and I found the rug at Costco the day before he went back to Spokane. We had an electrician put the ceiling fan in before we got here. We know how important ceiling fans are in the summertime here. We’re going to replace the light on the far right by the front door.

The photos really don’t show just how well the colors all match. There’s a blue pattern in both of the chairs that matches the rug perfectly and the grays in the curtains match everything. Even though they weren’t bought together, it seems to work.  

This is the light that we’re thinking about getting to hang by the door.

Here’s a better picture of the shape on the box, however this photo makes it look like bronze and it’s really brushed nickel.
I finished two more pair of mittens in the last couple of days and I’m still working on the border of Piper‘s blanket.

I posted this on Facebook, but thought I would share it here too. I thought it was hilarious because it is so true.

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday and always remember who to thank for all of the many blessings that we have. Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Love and blessings,
