Happy Friday! This week went by in a flash, didn’t it?! Here we are at the weekend again and we’ve made little progress on the kitchen renovation. But there’s hope yet. We have no plans this weekend and I’m thinking it may be time to demo the rest of the kitchen (selective demo, of course). But then again the forecast shows sun. And we have a garden to tend and a kiddie pool to lounge in and… well that demo might just have to wait until next month! 😉
Read MoreEver since we started dreaming about our Farmhouse kitchen renovation, I’ve imagined a color on the cabinets. But lately I’ve wavered a bit. A few fabulous white kitchens have crossed my screen and made me rethink our plans.

But I dare you to take a look at these 8 white kitchen and not fall back in love with white.
Read MoreHappy Friday! It’s Memorial Day weekend and I hope you have some fun plans! Garrett and I are taking a little break from renovating this weekend, trading our work boots for sandals, and taking the kids to see some family. After a month of pretty constant work on our garden, we’re all really excited for some downtime!

Read MoreHappy Friday! I’m writing this at 9 o’clock on Thursday night, it’s dark outside and raining, but Garrett is out in the garden raking out pea gravel. What a catch, that man! He’s obviously just as excited to wrap up our garden project as I am. Not only will it free up time for other projects (I’m looking at you, kitchen), but we’re really looking forward to spending time out there this summer.

Read MoreHappy Friday! How was your week? I don’t want to jinx it, but we’re having the best Spring weather. Garrett, the kids, and I basically spent all week outside, working on our garden and building a patio. Our outdoor furniture delivery is due next week, and I. Can’t. Wait!
Read MoreOn Friday I mentioned that we put an offer on a house that I was (and am) really excited about. Well, we’re officially pending!
Read MoreHappy Friday! Soooo…we put an offer on a house this week. A rental. I think it was only on the market for 20 seconds before I saw it, texted our real estate agent, and set up a showing. And then I had to keep my cool all morning while we waited to see it. Guys, I am excited about this one! Crossing my fingers I’ll have more to share next week.
Read MoreRemember our laundry room? That one we’ve been working on at a snails pace? Well it finally has a functioning washer and dryer (!!!), and we’ve made some other progress too. So today I’m sharing our design plan, a construction update, and all that good stuff. Despite our slow pace, I’m really happy with the decisions we’ve made. And I won’t be surprised if this tiny room ends up my favorite spot in the house. Yes, really!
