Update on Oklahoma...

Well, hello everyone from Oklahoma! Just wanted to give you and update on what we have been doing here in Oklahoma. We have officially been here just about 3 weeks now and are making huge progress on our house. We were so surprised to come home from California and our parents had paid to have the entire house textured! For those of you that don't know before the wedding a bunch of us ripped down wallpaper and John and his friends scrapped popcorn off of the all the ceilings. So it was so excited to have it all textured, that was going to be a huge undertaking. The next couple of days we made plenty of trips to home depot for paint and misc. supplies. Chosing colors was a very fun task, we went with blue for our bedroom and bath, a light mocha for the living room, green for John's office, a darker mocha for the guest bedroom, brown for the guest bath, and orange (yes, I said orange) for the kitchen. It was so funny how we chose the orange, it was midnight and it felt like we had been looking at colors for hours, suddenly I said, "what if we did orange?" John, said ok. I was tired and wanted to go to bed, after we bought the paint I realized what I had done....John went to OSU (colors black and orange) haha! But the color apparently is closer to a Tennesse orange than OSU. I love it though! We accented with green and made the ceiling peach to tone down the orange a bit. We both LOVE it! I'll put pictures up just as soon as I can. Well, after all the painting was done we called the carpet people and now we feel like we have a house! We brought in the furniture and it is really becoming a home. We are living with some concrete though, they had carpet in places we are going to eventually do wood floors, we just need to save a bit more before we get those in! So our little home in OK is coming together! We miss you all like crazy in california and can't wait for you to come visit!!! Much Love!
