My Mom is out of town for a couple of days so I took time off work to do my dream job, "stay-at-home mom". It has been amazing!!! Beckett and I have such a blast together and have I ever mentioned that he is a great little shopping buddy? Here are some pics of our most recent purchases.
I know this print is
everywhere, but Ben and I have adopted it as our new motto. I just bought it and soon it will be hanging in our family room. Just a reminder to take a deep breath and move on.
Nothing new in this picture but thought I would post it since I was taking pictures of the family room. The roses were freshly clipped from my garden this morning.
Again, nothing new in this pic, just love taking photos of my home. This is an antique dresser that my mom is letting us borrow (or keep) until they build their home in Charlotte. I changed out the knobs to some that are a little prettier. Don't pay attention to the jogging stroller on the right :)
This is my newest and most exciting piece. It's a navy blue linen zebra ottoman with nailhead detail. I have been looking for something to liven up our family room. The walls are "griege" and all of our furniture is neutral. I try to add some color with accent pillows, art work and small pieces like this. I absolutely love it and the best part is that it was 50% off!! Bargain! Slowly but surely this is becoming the room of my dreams........ it's just taking a while.
Happy Mother's Day!!! This is my beautiful Mom, sister and brother-in-law. Brittany and Bryce came up for Mother's Day weekend from Florida to surprise my mom. What a surprise it was. We had a great time, I just wish we could see them more often. It was such a fun couple of days.
Long post, I know, but I wanted to share whats blooming in my garden because it's absolutely lovely. Every time I go out there I discover something new.
Our clematis has just exploded this year and will be up and over the pergola by the end of summer.
Climbing roses up our brand new trellis'. Ben framed out two 4x8 pieces of trellis and attached them with chain on top and bottom to our pergola. It looks amazing. He is so talented.
Trailing verbena in our hanging baskets. Such a beautiful color.
My FAVORITE flower. Pink double peonies!!! We had tons of huge blooms this year. The house was full of them in vases, mason jars, pitchers. Anything we could find that would hold them all. It was gorgeous.
Last but not least, the first blooms of spring. Our white single peony.
