Bedroom Furniture...finally!

We have a bed!!!!

Ben and I sold all of our furniture at our yard sale during Apple Festival (Oct 3-4). We sold our bed, dresser, and night stands in order to have extra money to put towards a new bedroom suite. We had a queen set, but I had decided we needed a king. Ha.

Ben and I both need our own space when we sleep, not to mention room for all of our extra pillows. As I sit here typing, I am looking and counting 6 "regular" sized pillows and my body pillow. So in all, we have the 2 of us plus 7 pillows in the bed at night. Ha. It's no wonder we felt like we'd ran out of room in our old bed. Haha.

Since then we have been looking everywhere for furniture and can't find any we like or can both agree on. We finally decided to drive up to Blowing Rock, NC (to the Broyhill Furniture store) and look there. Luckily, we found some we liked over Thanksgiving break:

We ordered everything except for the tall armoire in the corner. My dad met the delivery guys at the house today. We were soooooooooo excited!!! We've had our king mattress and box springs on the floor and our clothes (from the previous dresser) in plastic tubs.

Well, wouldn't you know that the dresser is too big to go up the stairs! That seems to be the story of our lives! So we have a bed and nightstands... and a dresser in our living room. Looks like we'll be taking it up and through a window like everything else that's too big for the stairs.

Our bedroom:
We bought curtains over a year ago, but couldn't ever find any curtain rods we like. Go figure. So, nevermind the $3 walmart sheet hanging behind the bed. Ha. It definately matches the comforter, but that's all it has going for it. :)
