Dream homes

Not the we don't love our home but if we could put together a dream home of the things we love, these would be in it for sure. Do you think this home already exists? We hope so !

Must have a red door for sure. This door would be amazing, if it also included a...

porch

We love wainscoting, but to do that painful task again in a new home, well we would hope it would already be done for us.

Our course white french doors would be a must. Preferably in the entrance from our dining room into our living room.

And who wouldn't love wood beams. They are just beautiful. I did see a DIY version of these babies online, but I don't think our current ceiling height would be good for this option. Shame.

And this picture shows three lovely things. Bead board, pocket door and a vintage style light fixture. Perfection !

Our bedroom would be good for the batten and board shown here. So beautiful.

Oh and built-ins would be a must. We have a "built in" bookcase that we love now and would love some more features through out. These are awesome.



I love slate tile too. I'd love this in the kitchen and entry way.

As for the kitchen, white cabinets, green marble and a farm sink please.


Yea that sums it up a teeny bit. Is that too much to ask?

A room fit for a beatiful baby boy....

I wrote this post about a week before I had our son. I never posted it to my blog but wanted to share. It's almost been a month since baby B's arrival. Things are still a bit upside down over here, but boy are we in love !!!   It took a bit but it has all finally come together, I have some more final touches but not too much to go.  This is the most modern room in our home, even with it's vintage touches.  It took me a while to figure exactly which direction I wanted to go with in regards to decorating. Bedding was hard because I literally hated everything. I thought I found something on ETSY but once we found out it was a boy, I wanted something a little more boyish. The one thing that I can say always remained constant regardless of the sex of the baby or style of the room,  was the Jenny Lind crib. It's my favorite. Once I figured out what colorings I wanted for the room, I knew the black was the right choice. So here is the breakdown of...

Family

I began to write a posting on July 17, before we knew what God had planned for our sweet Kim.... Kim was taken home that evening to heaven. My entire family is in shock. As I am writing this, tears are running down my face.... Please sweet Jesus watch over Kim, she is safe now with you and is in no pain. Please watch over our family, heal our hearts as we keep Kim alive within ourselves.: "I don't have a very large extended family. Some may think it is, but in reality, it's truly not. I have a few aunts, a few uncles and a few cousins. Most live in different states and many times, communication is sparse. But we are all bonded, in an unspoken way. When one of us is in need, we all speak up and rally. My cousin Kim lives in North Carolina. I have not seen her in "real life" in many years. Maybe the last time was my wedding ? ! But we keep up on each others lives via Facebook. When she recently visited my mom, I was able to see her via Facetime.... Love techno...

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.
