Random - Lowe's had our granite and cabinets on display

I was in Lowe's last week and stumbled upon our exact granite and cabinets. (Well, our cabinets might have a little more yellow to them, but you get the idea.) Pretty cool!

Nothing new, but how about this dining room table and rug?

There is nothing new to report on the builder breaking ground. We're still waiting for them to sell another house - given the last two weeks and the uncertainty about Wachovia and jobs in Charlotte, who knows how much longer we'll have to wait.

That's ok though, we're having fun thinking about our dining room decor. In addition to the pieces above on the focal wall, what does anyone think of this table and the moorish rug - maybe in orange??

Our first new house purchase

We were shopping on Sunday and found these awesome old maps of Paris and London for a steal of a price, so we bought them! Our first purchase for our new home!
