Evolution of the Living Room

Today I would like to take you on a journey.

A journey through time (well, the last year at least) and space (this space, as in the living room).

{"I'm a master of time and space." Heroes anyone?}

Behold the room of the living:

Jason closed on January 15th, 2009. This time warp picture was taken on 1/17/09... BOO OLD, UGLY, SMELLY CARPET!

{check out some of the other carpet choices here}

...And this one was taken on 1/18. ME LIKEY HARDWOOD FLOORS!!

1/26/2009

Then we painted (Behr's Pumpkin Butter)... Hi Emily!!

2/7/2009

Then we put the extent of Jason's furniture in there. Yes, those are camp chairs. ::shudder:: It's all we had, my friends. And Jason's dad's retro couch from college.

10/23/2009 - same couch, new windows

Muuuuuch better! A little more furniture. All hand-me-downs. Seriously - everything but the TV was given to us. (And let's just be honest - most of the TV was paid for by wedding gift money! Whoo hoo!!)

11/28/2009 - same couch, new position

Furniture placement has changed, mostly because we knew we wanted to put our Christmas tree in front of the window. But we liked the new position!

2/27/2010 - oh yeah, same couch :)

Mostly the same, but we are the proud owners of a beautiful new bookshelf. We are hoping to get another one (when they get more in) for the other side to give it more of a built-in look.

We WILL be getting a new couch in the near future... I promise you'll be the first to know.

So what do you think? Much better than the original?

We're happy with the progression, for sure. :)
