As many of you may know, we are currently working on our next room renovation which we are calling the library! Some of you may know I’m obsessed with books and reading so this is a dream come true. It will be a place to relax, read, play games and chat with friends. It will be attached to the playroom which will be nice since Anchor and friends can play while adults are in the adjoining room.

Read MoreAs much as I want to get a new roof, add a front porch and other little updates, it’s important to remind ourselves how far we’ve come with this house, especially since we are doing a lot of the work ourselves. I decided to take a look back at how our house looked when we bought it and wow! I hardly recognize it!
Read MoreI absolutely LOVE this season! Decorating with pumpkins, gourds and fall plants allows for so much creativity and color. I had so much fun decorating our front steps. Everything is from our local mom and pop nursery. The guy ringing me out said “wow you have quite the assortment here” 😂. And I have to say it was a workout getting these pumpkins into my car, then back out and up the pathway to the front steps! So, if you’re looking for some exercise, just decorate your front porch.
Read MoreIf you’ve been following along with us then you probably know we’ve been working on our front landscaping, totally starting from scratch! If you saw this post you know a bit about our plans and how we had a professional come in and work with us on a design plan. We are so excited to reveal the final look today! All details below, so read on :)
Read MoreI know this is a long title! Anyway, this is a post I’ve been thinking about sharing since we did our entryway renovation. Once we did our other interior renovations and lived with them for a while, I strongly regretted one of our design decisions. It was actually more of a design neglect because we honestly didn’t think about it—it was more like oh this is how everyone does it so this is how it’s done.

I’m sure by now you guys know I love switching up our bedding for the seasons :) I think it’s such a great way to “decorate” for the new season, plus it’s practical since we need to change up the layers anyway! I’m so happy to be partnering with Garnet Hill again to use their beautifully made bedding for our fall look.
Read MoreOkay guys, this has been something that we have been hemming and hawing over for the past year. When we moved into this house there was a lot of nice landscaping but so much of it was overgrown and some of it was leaning against the house. Dan worked so hard last year to take down what needed to be and we came up with a landscaping plan, bought the plants and put them in. It looked great but this year we noticed that it still wasn’t as neat as we wanted. So we decided to call in the professionals!

I’m all for swapping out bedding for the seasons! This summer I wanted a splash of color and that perfectly undone, relaxed look—all things I associate with the summer season! That’s why I was SO excited when Garnet Hill reached out asking if I wanted to partner and promote something from their summer home line!
