Changes

Yesterday was the big day. The stagers came to rearrange our house to make it more beautiful for potential buyers. 

When they first got here I hovered, trying to help clean and heft things, but soon I realized that I was interrupting their efficiency, so we took a field trip to our favorite small town, Red Wing. 

 It was a gorgeous day. We ate chocolates, visited a charming bookshop, and had a delicious dinner.

When we got home this is what we saw.

The best part of their visit is that they used, with the exception of a few table lamps and a rug that really tied the room together, all our own furniture so when we move we can replicate exactly these set-ups.
