New Addition

Everyone, I have some big news. There is a new addition in the Martino household!


Hopefully I tricked you into thinking there was a baby or something, but there isn’t. However, I guess it could be considered my new baby. I got a new 50-inch, flat panel, plasma HDTV!!





I’m still trying to work out if I want a new “entertainment center” type thing under it. But to try to cut on costs a little, I mounted it and just added this small table. The room is so large that it sort of dwarfed this massive tv. And the picture does it absolutely no justice. I’ve been wanting to rearrange the furniture so that the fireplace was more of a focus rather than the smaller tv unit I had previously. This way, my couch and coffee table both directly face the fireplace making the area more of a sitting/gathering/conversation area. I’m really proud of it. Come over sometime and check it out.





I also wanted to show you guys my Christmas tree. In the fashion world, the purple and red combination is huge this year. I decided to bring it into the home. I also made a wreath, but I don’t have a picture of it.


Soon I’ll write a post on how I chose my tv and the woes of choosing to upgrade my regular satellite receiver to an HD receiver.
