A few weeks ago I had a routine physical, my last one was 3 years ago so I figured it was time. My PA requested some blood work to get a baseline for my cholesterol, blood sugar, etc. seeing as apparently I don’t have any record of this for many many years. (I don’t like […]
Navy blue is in the house….again
Oh navy blue, I love you and can’t stay away for long. Our first encounter was in my master bedroom, daring, I know! And I loved you then, all bold and blue but after a while you were too much for me and I needed a change. I tried other blues in another room instead but they just weren’t […]
Hardwood floors and Popcorn Ceilings
Hey friends, Well it’s summer and if your summer is going anything like mine, well it’s been crazy! I think I said the same thing last summer too. We’ve been busy bees around here even with having company and being gone to have our hardwood floors refinished. When we first considered having our hardwood […]
Dining Room Chair Debate
While cruising magazines, pinterest, blogs and online shopping for the dining room, the one design element I am just not sure on is the seating. I have two styles of chairs right now that I pretty much love but it’s form vs function between my man and my choices for seating. He is practical, […]
Making over the Dining Room
Hey friends, how is the beginning of summer treating you? It’s been really going great here so far, usually the first few weeks are an “adjustment period” because the mom and kids are trying to get used to sharing and being around each other all the time. Now that we know we are staying […]
Kids Bedroom Laminate Flooring
This dog, whom I love very much, hates peeing outside when it’s raining or snowing. That’s kind of a problem when you live in Minnesota. So because of that cute little schnauzer face, two weeks ago I was busy ripping out some dog pee stained carpeting in one of the bedrooms upstairs. I really love […]
Bloom where you are planted
For many of you who we see often, you know the debate of moving South or not has been ongoing in our home for about a year, well ok, maybe a little longer than that. The past two winters have been really rough on me personally. The bone chilling cold combined with the wind plus the cloudy days, make […]
Living Room Dilemmas
Hey friends, so if you follow me on instagram or my facebook page, you know last week I may have painted my front living room. I went wild and crazy, choosing a color without sampling it first and as you know, that’s probably a bad idea. I’m just going to be blunt and blame it […]
Updating the Hallway
It’s been a slow process but we are almost done with the hallway, stairway and entryway trim project. Back on Superbowl weekend (the very beginning of February) we decided to add picture frame moulding to the entryway and stairway. At the last minute we added on the upstairs hallway to our plans. Let me take […]
Marble Countertop Choices
Hello friends! It has been a while since I have blogged, we were busy traveling around the country for Spring Break. We headed back to South Carolina and Tennessee, our favorite places to visit! The weather was wonderful and so was the southern hospitality! It’s gloomy and rainy here today so all these pictures […]
