Let's see, what's going on in my life these days. The most obvious answer to that question is: the wedding. I cannot believe it's encroaching so quickly. Saturday...Saturday, folks! Wow. I've checked the forecast rather compulsively over the past two weeks. There were a few days where I melted into a pitiful puddle of depression over "80% chance of rain and high of 44 degrees." But now, dearies, the forecast is only 5 days out and calls for a day full of sunshine with a high in the mid 50s. Still a bit chilly, but the sun will warm up the tent, me-thinks. And, if everything fails then I'll move things into The Benton House and we'll make due. I'd hate to put that $1400 tent to waste, though. Weddings are expensive, friends.
Well, instead of posting pictures of wedding details (let's wait until after the nuptials, mmk?), I thought it'd be nice to show you all my Indiana abode. We live in Irvington, an East-Side district of Indianapolis that can be described as quirky small town meets haunted historic neighborhood. David and I live on a quiet, cobblestone street in a duplex apartment/house. Hardwood floors, fire place, quaint and lovely. We've still got a bit of decorating to do (and have actually done some since the photos were taken).
In pictures:
What a pretty number
Autumn-blue sky
Our street
Across the street.
Furniture on our porch (which will be Halloween clad after the wedding)
We let Goguma play outside sometimes (with supervision, of course!)
She's made one friend already...a calico mix we call Bubbles
Goguma loves the windows
She is our spoiled little princess.
The living room. We had our first fire with Amy a few days after we moved in. S'Mores and Hot apple cider + rum.
The bedroom
Bedroom...!
I created these while in College. All you do is go to the local flea market or antique store and purchase some pretty sheet music. Buy a frame that will fit them (these frames push the picture all the way against the glass) and then hang 'em up. Simple!
Bedroom...reading nook.
Kitchen-times.
More kitchen. The painting on the top left is my first-ever color painting! A work of art (haha!).
Really long hallway. Goguma, David and I run back and forth at night. We just love all that space!! ^b^
Hallway closet houses cosmetics, toiletries, towels, blankets and a few clothing articles.
Bathroom...Where's Goguma?
"Office" this room is just awful. We need computer chairs and plan to put a high kitchen table up on the opposite side...perhaps a rug on the floor.
My car...David's is right behind it. It feels wonderful to drive again. It's like a pair of wings.
There she is. Her name is "Meow."
That's all. Wendy City signing out, from the Indy-City.
3 sprinkles:
the house looks great (and so clean!) welcome home.
Your house looks lovely -- so much more room, huh!?
I was just thinking about David and his craving for Taco Bell, wondering how many times he's had it since he's been home. :)
I wish you both a wonderful, sunny wedding and many happy years together!!
I love your house! And cobblestone streets - wow!
I hope your wedding runs smooth as silk. I can't believe it's here already!
