Ok, ok...what I'm getting at is that I found a Willow Tree pillow at this little store. It has the brown and cream colors that we are wanting to go with in our living room. So of course I had to snatch it up. And the price wasn't bad either! And I absloutely adored the words written on it, they stay true to the style of Willow Tree items... 
Then, we made a quick stop by Wal-Mart and found the cutest candles. Just a few pennies short of 7 bucks made this decision a quick one. The fragrances of these candles are so fresh and the container it comes in also fits in with my country kitchen style. The container is really thick glass, good quality stuff. I plan on using the container after the candle is long gone for storing rock salt, or maybe tea bags. My mom and I both got the sugared pears scent. It smells yummy!
So, just a couple of purchases, but ones that made me happy. I'll be posting pictures as I go of the new furniture and whatever wall decor I decide on, etc., etc. if anyone is interested:)

Christie Belle,
I think you are making wise color choices and the ultrasuede is great. This is what I have in a light coffee color. I bought the treatment for spills, etc. It just wipes off.
Your pillow and candle were great buys.......
I can't wait to see what you end up buying. I love what you bought today. That pillow is very unique and I love it. I also love that candle. I am going to have to visit Wal-Mart soon!
It's so much fun to pick out new furniture...I'm really looking forward to seeing the pictures!
And I love your new purchases! I am only recently becoming familiar with Willow Tree and I agree that they are beautiful. And I absolutely love that country kitchen candle- adorable, and something I would have picked, too!
Blessings!
Christie, I think youd actually make a great home decorator! You know what I like to do...I like to volunteer to go to the homes of some of the older people in my Church (elders) and clean up their home a little and have a bit of fun decorating a little for them especially their table setting and bring them dessert. They love it especially if they dont have any children to help them..and its fo much fun to get to try to decorate a little just for fun.
Anyways, yeah you seem really good at it. I love the buys. I especially love pillows!!! I have a Christian book store that sells the willow tree stuff, Im going to have to check them out sometime now! :)
Love ya,
Candy
I can see that we're going to have to make a trip back to that store! Pretty pics, Christie-belle!!!
Love,
Mommie
New furntiure! Fun! I like the color combo, too. Yes, We are all interested.
I collect the Willow Tree figurines, too. Something in common!
I love Willow Tree as well...I have all the figurines that depict parents with their children, and for my fifth anniversary I am dropping hints that I would like the one of a man hugging his wife. They are so simple, yet beautiful!
I am going to be looking at Walmart soon too... I love candles!
Betty, I love the material on those couches, that's what we were thinking since we are wanting kids soon!
Trella, let me know what scent you get, there were so many scrumptious ones it was hard to decide!
Tammy, sounds like you have good taste:)
Thanks Candy! I would love to go into home decorating, I just don't have time to get the degree! So, for now, it's all for fun:) I admire what you do to help out some of the elders in your church, very sweet!
Mommy, we can make a trip back anytime you want!!!
Tracy, you have excellent taste as well, sounds like. Aren't the Willow Tree figurines just wonderful. You'll have to let me know some of the ones you've collected.
Christy, I think I have the one you are wanting, I got it for Christmas this past year, I love that one, probably my favorite. I bought my friend one not long ago of the woman holding her small son. I love giving them just as much as getting them:)
Thank you all for your interest in what we're going to be picking out, I can't wait to be able to post pictures!
The color you have picked out for your couch sounds beautiful! The pillows are gorgeous and I love your new candle!! I hope your ankle is feeling better!

Christie, you are not going to believe this but just this afternoon I picked up those candles and smelled them and coveted them. I have not been to Walmart in probably 6 months (just not much of a fan) but I am returning to get the candle. I can't resist now.
Also, I have the Willow Tree Nativity. You get the basic set for one price. I thought it was like $50 for JUST the Joseph or JUST the Mary figurine, but it is for Mary, Joseph, a shepherd, 2 lambs and a donkey. And of course Mary is holding baby Jesus, which is my favorite part. Can you even imagine a new mama putting her baby down without snuggling him? So check that out. It is not as expensive as I thought it was going to be. Oh, you have GREAT taste.
p.s. I have the microfiber furniture you are talking about. It is wonderful. Cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and always looks great. Go for it!
So sweet! I love the pillow and the candle!
And you will LOVE having the microfiber couch! That's what I have except mine is chocolate colored. Messes wipe up so easily! And if I could do it again, I would chose the color you like. The chocolate brown shows every piece of lent or crumb!
Kelli, thanks for asking about my ankle, it's slowly getting better. And thanks for the compliments on my new purchases.
Becky, wow! You have great taste:) It's so funny that you were just eyeing those candles, they are very worth it, I had mine burning just a little bit ago! Thanks for the tips on the Willow Tree stuff and on the microfiber furniture, I can't wait to get it now after everybody has told me how wonderful it is!!!
Hey Jennifer! Thanks for letting me know about the chocolate color b/c I was having a hard time deciding on that for a while. I just love browns and there are so many to choose from!
I like the things you bought baby! they're going to look good in our new house when i get back. i love you so much baby more then words can say (or type) :) talk to you soon
love always your hubby
