Rainy days make me productive!

I decided today that it is a good thing we don't get rain a lot because I somehow become more productive when its colder and rainy outside!

I have finally finished our living room and spent the day prepping for our bedroom. We finally are going to start painting the next couple of days since Kelly has work off and then 7 nights or work :( ...I'll take the two days off but not the 7 nights of loneliness

Yesterday, I got hired at Avante Photography. I am doing their packaging for the photos from dance studios, high schools, pretty much everything that gets photographed. I am doing all of the filing for it and making sure we get them out to where they need to be!! I am excited to work there since it will work well with Dance Image, I just am not as close to some people anymore so I kinda feel out of place now that I am married. Mainly, because I am never on my phone as much, and well I don't chase guys anymore...

Weird, Its only been two months and I have already changed so much!

Last night after I got home around 8pm I told Kelly I needed to run to Walmart since I didn't get to earlier, we only needed contact solution and I needed some makeup.. but we had to watch the Bachelorette first! (We count it as FHE) We wanted the trip to Wally World to be quick... well about a hour and a half later we walked out with what we need and a big black 55" LCD 1089 P LG TV... :) It was on Clearance it was already marked down a hundred dollars, but Kelly had to sit and ponder over if we should get it. Although it wasn't KSL he still got the manager to drop it 50 more bucks! I love my cheap husband!

Now I just have to find a TV stand I like and lets just say there isn't really much that I like! :)
Okay, I'll stop typing and post some pictures, I know you rather look at those that ready this?!
Here is the before and after of our living room! :)



The Breakdown:

The Zebra Chair started it all.. Kelly's mom got it from Kohls before we got married 
(she called it an early wedding present)
Next was the White High Back Loveseat: I found it on KSL months before we got it, Kelly hated it
then right before we got married he said he'd get it for my birthday, 5 hours later it was set up. So it was never sat on and was orginally $500 dollars from Overstock.. we got it for (drumroll) $150
Next was the rug: We love to go to Ashley Furniture because we can get a good discount from Kelly's brother in law. But we were just looking for a couch for the room and ended up loving this rug.. It was priced for $200 we got it for $116
Next were the Gerber Daisies: While I was wedding shopping at Hobby Lobby, They had a sale on these...okay how could i resist, my favorite flower and its zebra printed! They were half off which made them $8 bucks each. (I went back and got a few more)
Next was the Coffee table: I went to Ikea and picked it up for $20 bucks it makes a great modern piece! :)
Last but not least my microfiber red couch: Once again I found it on KSL while Kelly wanted a black couch I got my way and he hauled this down a three story building and into our house. It is orginally from Ashley Furniture for $400 and we got it for $150 the girl really wanted $200! ...
(The pillows were from my bedding in college, I am planning to make a few more)
Hope you love our KSL, Hobby Lobby, Ashley Furntiture, Ikea, Overstock living room!
