"open sleigh"

 Back when Ed and I were married in August of 1981.. we went together and picked out a nice new bedroom set.  And it was the only one that we ever bought. Now, I suppose as a rule, people don't buy many bedroom sets, but we have had our friends - after a while - buy new ones, some friend have had several new ones.. and not that it matters to me... but after having just one set all this time...
I really wanted something different. I have, for a very long time, always wanted a "sleigh bed"... I just think they are so pretty and of course a "sleigh" theme is right up my alley... so... we went shopping and two  months ago... we ordered this....
a beautiful sleigh bed. It's big... and I am now thinking it's a good thing we have a fairly large bedroom, because I didn't know how big until we uncrated it and got it up to our room... since we had to move everything about, it was also a good time to go threw the room and really get things picked up... this year will be in our house for five years.. so, it's time to do a complete overhaul....
I was (am) so excited to have it all set up now, and I must admit... "Ed's quilt" looks pretty grand on it.... (though I  need to do something about the pillows!!!)....
I also have the other "descend plate" quilt that will look nice on it as well... but this is good... 

such a blessing and I will have many sweet dreams in my "open sleigh" bed!!!
