In My Backyard

I thought I’d share some of our outdoor spaces and landscaping here today. While there are many, many things about the interior of our house that I wish I could change…the outside of our home pretty much just makes me happy. And, hey… it only took us about ten years of home ownership to sort this out.

Obsession Du Jour: Jane Beiles Photography

I first became aware of the beautiful work of Jane Beiles Photography only just a few months ago, after a style stalking post I did about Nightingale Design.

Sweet Child O’ Mine

This is my younger daughter’s bedroom. It’s hard to believe, but today my daughter, my middle child will be turning eleven. You may remember that when my oldest turned eleven, we gave her bedroom a whole new look…it was even featured in a national magazine! A hard act to follow and now the time is here. Even though my daughter and I have been all over pinterest for months looking for some inspiration for her room, we really can’t find anything that we both agree on. When I re-did my older daughter’s room, finding that initial inspiration was key. The room practically designed itself after we had the visual we needed. This time around, it’s more of a challenge. The room is smaller with windows on one side and closets taking up another wall. So far, all we know for sure is that we’ll be keeping the color scheme of lavender and green. Here are a few more thoughts on possible purchases and another perspective of the room. Do you have a girl’s room pinterest board we should follow? Any feedback at all is more than welcome!
