When we sat down to decorate our houses none of use really had much of an idea about what we were doing, but each of us started to formulate a plan as we started working.

For the record, we didn't do much of an official poll in the house, but an informal blind tally on Tara's Facebook left her standing in the #1 position. Congratulations Tara!
