Finally......FOR SALE!

So after months of talking about it and weeks of working on things, our house is FOR SALE! We had planned to get it on the market back in the spring, but with the way the market is right now (especially in our area) we kept putting it off. We finally found a great realtor who really wants to get it sold for us and we're really excited that we are that much closer to doing some traveling. We're praying that God brings the right family along at the right time. Andrew and I picked out the stone, bushes and plants for the flower bed and had a couple of 'handymen' plant everything for us. We were really happy with how it turned out. (I wish we would've done this A LOT sooner:) We also FINALLY cleaned out our garage!! For those of you who have seen the before, you know what I'm talking about! But look, my car can fit now!!!
This is one view of the living room. Thats the clock Andrew got me for my birthday....
In the spring, I painted my dresser black and wanted to find something to replace Andrew's chest of drawers. I found this (below) at the Pottery Barn outlet and it was just what I wanted, but the only color they had was the blue. So, I took on the (crazy) task of painting it to match my dresser... It looks great in our room and Andrew likes all the space for his clothes and stuff. Below is a chair that Drew has had for a LONG time. We needed something to go next to the book shelf, so I recovered the cushions....... I've really gotten into the whole decorating and painting thing. Andrew laughed at me for my before and after pics, but I'm gonna share them anyway:)

Pretty house--i wish it was in Oklahoma! I'd take it in a second! And I saw you were new to SITs so I thought I'd say hello!
