Something we see when we walk through the more rural equestrian areas near our house.

This is what you get for your daily shot when at 11:00pm you realize you haven't taken a single picture all day.

Our kitchen is done. Thank you, God.

Home through a rain-splattered car window.

Rain makes everything look better and more interesting--including a balcony railing. I also love that I didn't have to edit this photo at all.

Staggered It Is!

Thank you Liz, B, Molly, Kelly, and Summer for your sound advice regarding our giant living room wall problem. Thanks to your input we decided to add a third shelf and hung them staggered. Hope you guys like the end result!

Rejuvenate Kitchen, Part 2 (Otherwise Known as DONE)

Yes, yes, I know. I haven't made an appearance here in ages. But you're about to see why, because kids I've been working my heiney off trying to get this kitchen rejuvenation (not quite a remodel and not quite simply redecorating) done. Ok, Matt helped, too, but since I was the Project Manager on this venture (remind me later to post about my ingenious system for avoiding killing your spouse when tackling home projects together), the onus to wrap things up was squarely on my shoulders. But now...We. Are. Done. Praise Jesus, hallelujah, and amen. Remember this post from when we started? If not and you're too lazy to click the link and go back to review it, let me refresh your memory of what the kitchen looked like before.

[Shudder.]


But a new floor, wall paint, artwork, cabinet paint, hardware, roman shade and tile backsplash later, and voila!
