It's a two post kind of day!
We had quite the exciting afternoon! After we took mom dress shopping (where she found her dress for the wedding!), we stopped by Rooms To Go. I had seen an ad in a newspaper while on break at work the week before. I really wanted to go to the store and see this beautiful grey living room furniture in person.
When we got to the store, Jeff (our sales guy) asked if we were there for a specific reason. I pointed to the couch in the ad and he directed us right to it. It was love at first sit! It was comfortable and beautiful and exactly what we had been eying in other stores and online. I had my heart set on grey furniture and Jesse agreed.
After perusing the rest of the store, we made our way back to the grey set. We sat and looked over options and prices and asked Jeff a lot of questions. Then we said "WRAP IT UP!"
Jesse and I have officially made our first big furniture purchase!! We ended up buying a sleeper sofa (so we can have overnight guests!), a loveseat, a chair, and an ottoman :) We are so dad-gum excited! It will be delivered in November and will be put somewhere in mom and dad's house until we get an apartment in Jan/Feb.
We are dying to put it in our first home and couldn't have picked a more perfect set! Now to decide on accent tables, lamps, rugs, etc. I'm dreaming of a turquoise and grey living room :)

What I Love About You
We were browsing Barnes and Noble one night and stumbled upon these!
The book is called "What I Love About You" and we each purchased one. The plan is for each of us to fill out one of these books about the other. Then, near the wedding, we'll exchange books and be able to read all of the sweet, lovey dovey entries :)
The book has all kinds of prompts in it.....
- Name 10 of your favorite traits
- I adore this daily ritual we have...
- I missed you when...
- One of my favorite physical features is...
There are also empty pages to include little reminders of your relationship... glue in pictures, tickets, or other little trinkets that remind you of each other.
I have started filling out one for Jesse and he says he has started on mine, I can't wait to see what he has to say!!
