Hello! Happy Thursday!! How is your summer going so far?! The last few weeks have kind of been a whirl wind around here- birthdays, parties, softball, guests and lots and lots of construction and noise. This week Jayde started driver’s ed. I mean, I don’t know how I’m old enough to have a child in […]
Should I stay or should I go?? You might know this song from The Clash and while it’s a great song- it’s also a question Matt and I have asked ourselves over the years. Almost ten years ago we bought this house with plans to someday add on a big living room to the back. […]
Hello friends!! It’s another windy day here in the middle of Kansas but yesterday was the most gorgeous day. Literally- perfection. We went golfing and couldn’t of asked for a more beautiful day. The day before it was snowing at Jayde’s softball tournament. That is spring Kansas weather for ya! Luckily, we had one non […]
Hello and happy Friday!! Lately, I’ve been in a creative slump- or more so – there’s been really no projects for me to do. We are gearing up for a VERY BIG project in the next few weeks (will share more about that in a different post) but that’s more so planning/thinking – not getting […]
For YEARS our fireplace mantle has drove me crazy. Number 1- way too small in my opinion. Number 2- the mantle has been at a slant for as long as I can remember. One day last month, I finally had enough and took the mantle down. I knew I wanted a rustic mantle in replacement […]
It is officially spring. I always welcome a new season; usually am always ready for a change. Life though- not always. Life’s new seasons aren’t as predictable. They come barreling in, sometimes unwelcomed, not caring that I’m not ready for different; that I’m still trying to grasp onto what once was. But there’s growth in […]
Happy Friday friends!! Hope you all are having a wonderful day! Today I wanted to share our downstairs’ staircase that I gave a little makeover to this week. So….a few years ago, I tore up the carpet on the stairs leading to our basement. It was not in the budget to get new stair treads […]
Hello friends!! Hope you all are doing well! Last weekend I was able to stop at one of my favorite antique stores in town and picked up a few goodies!! For me, thrift and antique stores are hit and miss. Many times, I go and find nothing. Other times, I buy multiple items. Just depends […]
Hello friends! It is a foggy, foggy morning over here in the middle of Kansas. I can’t really complain though, because this week’s weather has been magnificent. Sunny days, clear skies, and a high of 60. Pretty darn perfect. Another thing that is pretty darn perfect, is our laundry room. Over the last couple months […]
It’s honestly a little embarrassing typing out this post – once again, I have changed up the entryway. In the last year I have tweaked this space 3 different times. We have very tall ceilings and I’ve always felt like the space has needed a large item to fill it but if I’m being honest […]
