More of our home

Our living area on the main floor has shrunk quite a bit, but it feels cozier somehow, and is already being used much more. An old dresser from Lee's side of the family anchors a wall, while the trunk my Great Grandfather used during WWII is our coffee table. I found an old lard bucket on the yard sale trip I took a few weeks ago, and now it is an end table... I love to mix my old and new... mostly old, but it is comfortable!

Our Kitchen is older, and in need of some updating... So this is all I will share for now. A peek in at my new double ovens, and a table my father in law built, he passed away a few years ago, and it is an absolute treasure. We use it daily, and as my kitchen changes it will become my island.





My keeping room... the heart of our home! It is where homework is done, where meals are shared... I love this room! The farm table and bench are from Lee's family, the ice cream chairs are the chairs I sat in growing up with my family the hutch is from my grandfather, and the other things are "new" old things to us, but will be family heirlooms someday!

This is just another view into the living room from the dining room. This table is from my grandfather, with a photo of my grandmother that passed away last year. Simple things fill up the space... for now... until Christmas!

One more view of the dining room... I am ready for fall! The table and long buffet are also from my parents home. All of these things are filled with memories for me, and I hope my children will have many memories made at them as well!
