202 B Street/Home Sweet Home

Here's our little home in Milford Nebraska.



And here is our dining room table, we'll have dinner around it when you come.
I found the little red pickup on top of Josh's gun case at his folks place and told him, "I want that!". He gave it to me. :D
Isn't it the cutest thing? 
Josh told me about this dining room windowsill while we were dating, I've been having fun looking at it and dreaming about what to do with it. For now it looks like this. 

My dad hung our light fixture for us while he was here. It makes me happy in my heart.
Josh sent me a picture last Christmas of my  "early Christmas gift". I was thrilled to be the owner of this piece of furniture. What is more fun than arranging candles, china, glass bowls, and tea cups, behind glass doors?
This  is part of the fun of living in a hundred-year-old house, a built in bookshelf in my dining room. This is one of the happy spots in my house. 
The kitchen. And the dog 's (Sadie) gate. I keep her shut in the back entry way. There is nothing more disturbing than thinking you've got your dog house trained and allowing her the run of all un-carpeted arias and suddenly discovering that she... er.... isn't house trained. 

My view when I do dishes. Lisl, the card there is the one you gave for our wedding. It's gorgeous. 

Roses and mint tea in a crystal candle holder make me happy too.

The living room that has been declared, "cozy" by several people. I'm quietly biding time untill I can get rid of so much carmel color. I like a little... but four whole walls is a bit much. Any idea's on what to do to add some, "less carmel" to this room? 

It's been lots of fun settling in and getting used of a new normal. So far normal has proven to be just what my mother always said it was though, "a setting on the drier". Life is busily being summertime here. But it's a lovely summertime. :)
                                   
Come visit us, you know where we live now. :D
