Did you know we have four fireplaces in our home?  If you weren’t here from the beginning of the build, this may be new information to you.  When I first saw the plans from the architect, my heart jumped.  The thought of four fireplace mantels thrilled me to the core.  Especially when I saw the […]

Did you know we are working on getting our bedroom put together?  Ha!  I’ve shared so many different posts on it, like this leaded glass window and this cozy corner. It is the one room that we couldn’t wait to complete.  While we don’t spend a ton of time in here, it’s important for it […]

Slowly but surely, we are getting things put together.  Every time we bring a new load over, I’m thrilled to put it away.  And get everything organized.  Did you see my home decor room?  Since I took those pictures, it looks a lot different and lot fuller.  Deb added a few more shelves for me.  […]

We just got back from a fun and relaxing trip to North Carolina.  We went to see my sister, who lives in Greensboro, for almost a week.  She moved there last August and we had never been there to see their new house.  I should say OLD house.  Their home was built in the 1920s […]
