This is my new bed( sorry about the
photo) about a month ago
my husband and I decided that after 25 years we need a change and I have always wanted a dark cherry wood sleigh bed so we went out one day and ended up buying a new sleigh bed, two night stands,and a dresser and mirror and a new dining table ( but that is another blog!)
what did we do with the old furniture
well we kept a few pieces but the rest we donated to the high school drama
club.( note: I am going to get one more piece a matching T.V. Case!)
I was feeling kind of sad in away because we had that old bed room set for 25 years but as my husband has stated to me, that was the first 25 years, this new furniture is for the next 25 years ( I kind of wonder if every 25 years we are together will I always get new furniture?! ) he did make one thing clear that this furniture was not my anniversary gift ! ( I am glad of that!)
so now I am in the process of finding just the right bed spread and accessories I want
can't be to girlish and not to manly has to be the perfect fit for both of us. this is going to be interesting since he is helping me with it!
I will let you know in a future blog what we end up with.

Wow I have another 10 years before I have to buy a new one. We have had this one for about 15 years. I think we may have to pass ours along to my son though because he has outgrown his own.
This is so funny. I love your new furniture, very nice. Ness and I have had our talks of furniture. We dont have much now, but we are planning on getting more in CA when we come back home. That what we are waiting for. I have heard horror stories about the military moving furniture back home. You might have to tell me where you got yours...
It is very lovely ~~ I like the dark cherry wood.
We have my husband's mothers bedroom set, but I prefer a little head board we use now as it holds books!!!
