Our Home is an Open Book
What does it mean to love your home? For me, I loved this house for so long that I never even dreamed we would actually be here. And now, it’s our home. I firmly believe that your home tells a story and fully describes and indicates who you are as an individual and as a family. […]

Why didn’t we install cabinets (that one can be answered for layout purposes…see that window right next to the shelves? Not nearly enough space for cabinets!)? Some of […]
The Dining Room Table Saga {A Re-Post}

Good morning! As basketball season continues, projects aren’t getting finished like planned (and that is COMPLETELY FINE! We are enjoying this time so much and would NOT trade it for the world!). Have I mentioned how much I love these guys? And Saturday mornings together? And that I love how much they love our boys? […]
{Land of Nod} Knock Off Storage Cubes
I’m so excited to be back with another little update to the boys’ playroom! We knew we wanted this space to be child friendly, yet stylish–yes, even for boys 3 and 1, so we started with a plank wall! (I saw someone call it shiplap and I think I like the coastal vibe that gives!) […]
Our Home’s Paint Colors

Happy Friday, friends! After revealing our kitchen a few months ago, I had several inquiries on Instagram about a paint colors post. I realized I had never shared these specifically so here’s a short post on our paint colors! Each of these colors are Valspar. I almost ALWAYS use Satin or Eggshell finish, except in our […]
