trying to make it a home

yesterday i moved back "home" to auburn. while driving around running errands, i stopped by our old blue house to get some mail and saw this:

love what you have done with the place, boys. the authentic "dixieland" sign really adds charm to the front porch. green plastic chairs also encourages the fratastic theme. i am not sure what the deflated tiger stripe thing is, nor do i really want to know. not pictured in the photo is their two trucks with their pi kappa alpha stickers on them. dad, your "brothers" are in need of some help.

meanwhile, i am doing some decorating myself, trying to turn this apartment into a home. the apartment looks like a tornado just whipped through it, but the walls are starting to look good. i finished the photo collage record fast and without butchering the walls. happy wedding pictures definitely warm up the hospital white walls!


that's about all i can show you right now. i am in the process of sanding/painting 3 barstools. hgtv makes sanding look way too easy. i will post those pictures {hopefully} soon. i will leave you with our view.

beautiful auburn sunset.

oh Kathryn the collage looks GREAT!! Can't believe you knocked that out by yourself. Above the couch? Your view picture is awesome btw.....
and the little blue house.....well, it will never see as much love as you and Tyler put into it. Wonder if that boy that came by while we were cleaning rented it??? If we would have known that we wouldn't have been so nice on the cleaning end of it!!...right??
Hope you are enjoying your beautiful new apt....
