Exciting News!


Today is an exciting day in the GreenBean household. Mr. GreenBeanSexy Man and I are closing on our first home today!:) We're very excited to have found our perfect house after looking at about 45 houses and three months of searching and waiting. And now today's the day. And how perfect that we're buying our first house a week before our one year wedding anniversary? I think that's a good present, don't you?

Of course, one of the bedrooms will become my office/library and I can't wait to have a room full of bookshelves. I'll be sure to post pictures when it's all finished.

Now comes the painting and decorating and honestly, I have no idea what I'm doing! If anyone has good suggestions on books to read (of course) or TV shows I should watch, I'd love to hear them.

    Congratulations! That is so exciting to buy your first house. And, overwhelming so don't feel you have to get everything done right away. You have a lifetime together to do that :-)

    Congratulations! I just moved a couple of months ago and we're STILL unpacking things and buying furniture and stuff. I got one of the walls in my room painted read, and I have zebra print blinds.. if that helps. haha.
    Good luck !

    Awesome! That's so exciting!

    As far as TV shows go, if you've got access to the infamous Springfield Mediacom standard cable, HGTV is on channel 68. It's basically one giant home improvement channel, and they've got all kinds of neat decorating ideas. My roomies and I always turn it on when we get bored! Lol. Good luck with moving in! :)

13 District Mockingjay Tour: District 4

Hello and welcome to District Four. I'm sorry that Finnick isn't here to be your host. I know as a member of District Four I should be cheering for my own tribute, but after watching the last two Hunger Games play out I have fallen in love with Peeta Mellark! Why do I love Peeta? He's smart, he's funny, and he's charming. He stands up for what he believes, he's loyal and he's not afraid to do what's right. He's sensitive and caring but can also be strong and kick butt. He fights for Katniss and with Katniss. Peeta is a great diplomat and he knows how to bring people together. He can also be sneaky to get what he wants. Plus, did I mention he can bake? And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where ...
