I'm typing this entry from my granny bed, feet and head elevated. Yep, Michael finally got what he has been dreaming about for the past 4 years or so. a dual adjustable tempurpedic bed. with remotes that raise the head and/or feet as well as "massage" a feature i have no intention of using:) he has wanted this bed forever and he finally got it!
It started with the dogs ruining the carpet in our bedroom. It was the shaggy-ish kind and you couldn't see where they had peed but we ended up figuring our they were having LOTS of potty breaks in our bedroom. So we decided since the rest of the downstairs is hardwood rather that replacing with carpet that they would probably ruin again to go ahead and get hardwood. It took a while to go through with getting them because it was pretty pricey. So, once we decided to get the hardwood we reasoned it was also time to go ahead and upgrade to a king bed and while we're at it may as well get a new bedroom suite to really do it right! I failed to take pics before of our old furniture but I may have one from when we first moved...but here are the progress pics:

This is a photo of the bedspread i want from pottery barn (i took this at their atlanta store) but we are still looking:
We also need to find a bench or chest for the foot of the bed and a rocker for the corner.
Sorry for the super long bedroom post but it is very exciting to me:)
