Okay, I know this isn't too flattering of either us or our bedroom, but it captures one of my favorite times of the day.

We've been having fun making our little house feel more like a home. We're not sure how long we'll be in Utah, and it may be a few more years at least, so we're trying to settle in a bit more and start enjoying life wherever we may be living. Here are some little improvements we've been making in the past few months:...
