So...this weekend found part of our family searching out treasures at various estate sales scattered throughout our town.  We are now the proud owners of two antique desks, two French Country chairs and a fun, French Country game table.  Needless to say, we found quite the treasures!

The French Country pieces are now home in our master bedroom.  The room was redecorated in the "let's move everything around to see if I like it better here" method.  Lots of dust and back- ache later....we have a new room. Voila!!

The bedroom really is more beautiful and peaceful.  I napped here this afternoon and then decided to rule my little world from my cozy bed.  I brought my laptop back and rewrote some lesson plans, caught up on some correspondence, even talked on the phone a little.  All in all, this "newness" renew and revived me.  Isn't that interesting?
