Life Lately

Here are a few things that have been going on lately at the Ray house.

After Christmas, Ricky and I decided it was time to "update" our house. We put up curtains, hung things on the wall, and gave our bedroom at small make over. It was a lot of fun, and our house looks so nice and welcoming now.

Here is our finished living room, before and after.

New Curtains

Here is our Bedroom, My favorite update, before and after.

                       This was our bed before the update. A gold bedspread and blue sheets, not pretty.

Here is a picture with the new bedding, but nothing else.

Here is the after. I love it!!

There is still a lot missing on this wall. Any suggestions to make it better?

Dereks room:

I thought I had a before picture, but I don't. His room has so much color and life to it, I love it.

So there you have it.  A quick update to our new house. It is coming together piece by piece.

In other news, February has been a great month with a lot of new and exciting changes.
I had an interview with Texas A&M, and was offered a job there. I start next week.
I am so excited and I am so nervous at the same time.
I will still be advising, but on a much larger scale. I will work in the same building as Ricky, and I am really excited, and one of the best parts, I will be in the same town as my family.
Ricky and I will be able to ride to work together, and eat lunch together. All the while I get to do what I love, advise students and help them achieve their goals.

               

February has been a great month, and I can't wait to see what happens in March.
