Friday, July 17, 2015. So hubs left Sunday for a full week of banker’s school….meaning it was just the kiddos and me all week.

My mom was at the beach too, so I had no back up! Anyways, point is….it was a LOT of work but we survived! BUT, last night may have been the WORST. I came home from work to our upstairs AC being out. WTF! THREE: I’...

Happiness is something you create. Thursday, June 16, 2011. While we were playing in the sun. We had painters doing this. We painted the "shared" spaces Agreeable Gray by Sherwin Williams and updated the baseboards, trim, doors, and window sills to Pure White also by SW. I am very pleased with the results. I will eventually finish out all the rooms with the Pure White but we weren't sure what we wanted to paint the bedrooms and bathrooms so we decided to wait. December 9, 2011 at 4:47 PM. P is for Party.

tales of a house fanatic: August 2012
http://talesofahousefanatic.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 10, 2012. Today I came across these beautiful images of a beach house renovation - everything I believe a beach house should be. bright, open, airy, tropical and perfect for family. All pictures by Prue Ruscoe. Found here. I love this little sandbox in the shade! Now to find time to escape. Wednesday, August 8, 2012. Wish list : metal roof. Let's discuss a metal roof. 1 More expensive initially (than standard asphalt shingles) but saves in long term maintenance costs. All photos via MLS.

Popcorn, Pugs & Peonies: Stress: My So-Called Instagram Life (Changes)
http://popcornpugspeonies.blogspot.com/2015/07/stress-my-so-called-instagram-life.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. Stress: My So-Called Instagram Life (Changes). We are so excited for our future, even though we don't know exactly what it will bring. I guess sometimes you really do have top put on your big girl panties and dive into the deep end. I think my Instagram account really paints a picture. Plums from our tree that we have made cobbler from for years and years. Trying to convince myself to jump in. We try to keep them in a routine. A sunbath never hurt anyone. I don't know if I am going...

Tuesday, June 30, 2015. I’m having a really hard time decorating our current house. Besides the rooms that were pretty much the same/the furniture transitioned over and the boys’ room….I feel like I am at a standstill. The issue is of my own making, but I don’t know how to fix it. You see what I mean? With that being said….here is where we are on some of the main rooms, I’ll try and update with pics soon…for my own memory:-). Dining room: this is one room I could probably go ahead and do…I know I&#...
