Notes From Our Nest

Today we put into motion the first part of our master moving plan. We packed up our belongings from and loaded them into a U-Haul in South Beloit. No one quite understand’s the extent of my dear hubby’s anal-retentive packing habits, so I thought I’d document it for everyone…

Tomorrow, we embark on Phase Two of the Journey. We take ourselves and our U-Haul to the burbs. We also have…the final walkthrough of the NEW HOUSE!

Love,
M

P.S. Moms…please don’t worry, I barely lifted a finger all day. I gave myself the jobs like getting K cold drinks and fetching the packing tape tape.

The best $10 we've ever spent (the dolly)

He makes it look so easy!

Perfectly stacked boxes

I wonder if I annoyed him...taking pics as he did all of the work?

All loaded and ready to go!

I am so proud of my project! I refinished and painted these adorable chairs for our kitchen.

They were formerly off-white and faux-finished with a crackling and peeling paint. I loved them, but I wanted some color in our lives!

Robin's Egg Blue Chair

We’re looking for a dark wood, round pedestal table that is between 36 and 42 inches to go with our chairs…

Here are some possibilities:

Option 1: C&B Allegro (kind of big, though)

Option 2: C&B Avalon Table (too big?)

Option 3: WE Round Table with Cutout Legs

Option 4: Target American Simplicity

Any thoughts?
