new bookcases

Here is a picture for my mom.... =) My parents gave us 3 beautiful bookcases for Christmas... and we finally got 2 of them put together... we also unloaded a couple boxes of our books from the basement (those of you that know me well know I read a lot, and also have a hard time giving up my books).

You will also see a couple of clay pots on the one shelf. Matt's aunt Barbara gave us a whole collection of some Mayan relics that her husband had collected over the years. Matt always loved them and it was so thoughtful of her to pass them along to us. We finally have a place to display a couple of them... and hopefully we will find a special way to display the rest of them as well in the near future.
