There are times when I feel like good hospitality is a lost art form, especially in my own home. People don’t RSVP. Hand written thank you notes are a thing of the past. Sometimes I start thinking of the dirty dishes that will need washing and the beds that will need changing before a guest even arrives….
This week I’m showcasing a Magnolia Market inspired kitchen message board fashioned from old fence pickets, because y’all…I’m still so inspired by my trip to Magnolia Market. All the crates and bottles and greenery… The farmhouse style that Joanna Gaines has helped catapult into the decorating Hall of Fame is so fun to me because…
They just don’t make things like they used to. This thought sifts through my mind as I sift through flea markets and antique stores. This completely true observation has to be one of the main reasons I like old stuff. Things were built better in the past. With more care, built to last, often handmade…
Garage Turned Guest Cottage Makeover I’m not sure what made us decide to turn the garage into a guest house, but it was one of the best decisions we’ve made. With both sets of parents living out of town it was really meant to be a place for them to stay when they visit. It…

I told you last week I would be reliving the past a little this month. Last week was my Grandfather’s birthday and tomorrow is my Granny’s! My Granny could smooth burn up a kitchen. She was an amazing cook, good old comfort food was her specialty. It was just the food of her day. As a…
I hope you will go along with me over the next few weeks as I reminisce about my grandparents, their home on the Outer Banks of North Carolina and ask for your prayers as I prepare for a few upcoming events. This summer my family has been blessed to have an extended vacation in North Carolina….
Have you ever moved to a new city? A place where you really didn’t know anyone? Maybe you are in the midst of getting settled right now. Let me introduce you to my friend. We met in a completely untraditional way and an unexpected friendship formed eight years ago. I was new to town, didn’t…
You may have heard me mention our garden. It is not the most highly productive garden on Earth, but our blackberry shrubs went over the top crazy this year. Like I couldn’t keep up crazy. Berry crazy. My littles love to help… for about three minutes. I think we filled about 12 or more gallon…
If you checked in last week you saw the kitchen update. Which gave you a glimpse of our breakfast area and overall layout of the space. This week is a little more focus on the breakfast nook part. I love our big open kitchen and when we first moved in I used the space in…
