Making the House a Home

Window coverings were a high priority once we got into the house. I must have been in too much a hurry because I had to hem most of them twice before they were right!

Gradually, the house became ours as items unique to us began to surround us: the picture of the Ogden Temple on our bedroom wall, the sliding bookcase in Steve's den held bird books, and shelves and files filled with family history.

I purchased a new rug for the living room and placed a hanging of painted humming birds on the wall adjacent to the dining table meant to hold back some of the echos in the large room.

I love inviting people to come visit us at our new home. I love being here and am so grateful that Steve made it possible to realize this long-held dream.
