The Lauren Style: November 2011

HELLO SUNLIGHT. Thank YOU Windows!

BEFORE

IN the process

DONE!

I bought metal chairs from World Market that were $82 a piece and then went to Goodwill and found them for only $3 a piece so I got all 5 of them.

Ikea is great for cheap, BUT cute curtains! only $7 a panel and everywhere else they are $30 minimum.

We Moved.

THE BIG MOVERS.

Always good thing to have for your movers

Penny was little help

Yet a big help

I told she had to help sweep because she was a slave girl...she didn't like that to much.

ugh, what to do with all the stuff. Moving is so funny, it's exiting fun until you realize you have to start all over, find new places for all your stuff, after you realize you have too much stuff! It took 1 week to put things together, and about a week and a half to get it feeling like home.

Andrew has been the handy man, even though there has been some bumps along the way.

Things go wrong and he never freaks out, I wish I was as calm and easy going as him.

I have a long ways to go to be "chill"...BUT I am WORKING on it:)

Hanging up things galore, I have soooo many frames, it's gotten out of hand.

I just keep buying more and more because in out old place the walls were pretty yikes

so I had to cover them with frames, art, mirrors.

p.s. before and after pictures still to come.

(actually have to finish before putting "after" photos up)

Packing Clothes.

best way to move clothes...trust me.

Take your clothes straight from the rack and place in a sheet and then wrap. Easy to move clothes into new closet cause you just have to hang them up.NO BOXES NEEDED.

Just a few pics, more to come on the move.

What are you wearing?....

....TO THANKSGIVING DINNER!?

It's all about the cozy sweater and cute boots.

Wear neutrals or wear vibrant fall colors like red, mustard, and forest green.

Wear a over-sized sweater is both chic and comfy.

Another plus: when you ate to much you won't feel too too fat.

Alright, now go out and get yourself a new comfy sweater for next week:)

Paige the Baby.

Excited For this.

HUNGER GAMES movie is coming out in March! Can't wait! From the trailer looks like it's going to be good...the books were amazing if you haven't read them you SHOULD.

Side Note:

we have been busy all weekend moving, decorating, and organizing.

Just a little something from our 100 yr. old home.

Hope your weekend was a little more relaxing then ours.

This morning I got a scare in the house. Andrew went to work this morning and I didn't have class till 12 so I slept in and woke up to footsteps coming up the stairs. I laid there panicked wondering who it could be, I pretended to be asleep, "the person" stood at the top of the stairs and then went back down them. I looked at my phone and it was 10. I thought it can't be Andrew because he left only an hour ago and he would have told me he was home. I called Andrew to see if he was at work and his phone was off ( WHY WAS HIS PHONE OFF) then I called his boss (NO ANSWER) then I called my mom (NO ANSWER) then I called my mother in-law ANSWER! She stayed on the phone with me and calls 911 and says run out the door and the cops will be there at the curb. I RUN DOWN THE STAIRS and too my surprise... it's who? ANDREW!! Oh man, well that's my Monday morning.
