Settling In - and a Giveaway!

We are starting to settle in here in Montana. I finally got to do a big grocery shopping trip yesterday (with two toddlers in tow, oh the joys!) and was a just a little bit shell shocked at the prices. It's also a little bit traumatic to be paying for fruit from California at more than twice the price I'm used to paying in California. Let me just tell you, I have taken oranges for granted my whole life.

I haven't had much time for decorating yet as are still getting furniture set up and organized - our living room is kind of a small, odd shape so the couches aren't fitting quite how I'd like them. The coolest part of our living room is this awesome fire place with a mantle and built in book shelves on both sides and a large space for a poster or picture highlighted by recessed lighting.

We haven't decided yet what to put up here. An option is to get Ed's reproduction vintage Disneyland poster framed and put up . . . it's of the original submarine ride (the plan is to get posters of all our favorite old school rides.) On the other hand it would be cool to have the mantle area free for holiday decorating, there are always cool mantle linkys around the net. But honestly, am I that on top of life? More likely I'd have St. Patrick's decorations still up in July. I also think it would be cool to have the vintage Disney posters up in Ed's office at church, so I am really torn.

The space is mocking me with it's blankness . . . I am sure we will feel more settled in once we've got stuff up on the walls.

Decorating a new place can be fun and intimidating all at the same time . . . who am I kidding, decorating a place you've been in for years can be just as intimidating! Are you doing any decorating? Maybe you need to breathe some life into an old room or add a new fun gadget to your kitchen? Well I bet you'd love to win $25 to CSN Stores to help out! CSN Stores is letting me give away a $25 gift code to one lucky reader and it's easy peasy to win!

CSN Stores Giveaway

You may remember my obsessive stalking of CSN Stores giveaways before Christmas . . . I was so determined to win at least part of the cost of the awesome play kitchen we got the kids for Christmas, and I am so glad I did because they love it! CSN stores doesn't just have awesome products for kids, they have over 200 sites and carry everything from great cookware and chic lighting to modern dining room furniture.

I may be in need of some dining room furniture soon . . . we have never had much of a dining room to speak of, and I am hoping we find a place that allows us to get some really great dining room furniture. CSN carries tons of gorgeous sets:

I kind of love the Hillsdale Verona 5 Piece Set . . .

I'd die for a great yard, and how awesome would this Big Top Sandbox be for my two rambunctious tykes?

I am super excited to be able to partner with CSN Stores to giveaway a $25 gift certificate to CSN Stores. I absolutely had the best shopping experience with them, and I am sure you will too!
