photo time

taking a quick break to post a few photos. no "real" house-type work was done this weekend. decided it was time for a nice break and enjoyed the weekend. friday night we had our first house guests over to watch a movie on the new lcd and had some tasty pad thai. saturday was kicked off with breakfast at pamelas, doing a little shopping in squirrel hill, then off to the south side. sat near the fountain in south side works for an italian ice break. ended up having a late lunch at fatheads which consisted mostly of a few beers and a basket of fries. i was still full from breakfast, i swear! we ended up going out to ikea again to pick up a few of the remaining items we needed for the kitchen and living room. here are a few photos of the progress.

new shelves installed in kitchen:


a few views of the living room:







finally received the cover for the couch and got that on this weekend. this week we need to pickup the wall mount for the tv and longer cables so it will definitely look nicer than it does now. the wall color isn't coming out too well the pics... its looking very white. its actually an oatmeal-ish type color. once the tv is set up, we're going to paint the fireplace so it blends in a little more with the surroundings. next step [which may not be for awhile... installing the new floors]

i think thats it for now. back to work on my sewing projects!
