Did you think I was gonna drop this blog like the rest of them?

No way. I've just been gone ALL summer. Lots of vacations (San Diego, Colorado, Northern Arizona) and lots of swimming in warm Arizona pools.

I've got some exciting news. I'm working on re-designing this blog. I'm currently hunting for a great blog designer and think I've found the perfect one! Let me know if you know anybody too.

I wanted to post our family room (only room) in our tiny little place. Have I mentioned how much I love our tiny little place? I love small homes. Intimate, cozy, easy to clean, and appropriate for a family of four.

The room is mostly chaos because you know the two of us can't keep anything in the same place for longer than a few months. We did it on a small budget. Everything is Ikea. The basket is Target, the chair is CB, the sofa is RH, the Eames chair is from Herman Miller and the rug is HomeGoods. Isn't it amazing? 100% wool, made in Spain, and $99! The rug and the desk chair are the only things I bought since moving here. I want to get an arc lamp by the desk and put up my Jonathan Adler sconces over the sofa.
