Nursery Reveal & Big News

 

As soon as we found out we were having a boy, I knew I wanted to show case our patriotism & my husband's Army career. 

And honestly I don't think anything screams little boy more than red & blue. 

I love that it isn't baby blue and is something that he can grow into. 

I even found a sweet little collection of "baby" history books on Amazon that tells of our nations story in a way that kids can understand. 

This is by far my favorite room in our house & often find myself sitting in the rocker while Cooper is asleep & just taking it all in.

It's so sad that in just a few short months this house will be rented out while we head down to Fort Benning. But I am so glad we are just renting it. This house will always carry a special place in my heart as the home we moved into just a week after we got married & brought our sweet bundle of joy home. 

So bittersweet. 

Can't wait to see what the Army has in store for us next! 

House to Home

Two years ago today we officially became home owners! 

Moving in I had no idea that our homes physical appearance would change so much.

Since we've moved in, we had a tree fall on our house.

{Read about that here.}

& that led us to get a metal roof & re-paint our shutters & door. 

Also last year, I landscaped our yard while the hubs was deployed. 

I think what I love most about our house is that is is ours.

We can paint our walls, tear them down, or pretty much do whatever we please.

We have done so much to make it "ours" & I can't wait to hopefully raise a family here.

It is so rewarding & I love coming home to a little place of my own.

I plan on doing a home tour. Let me know if y'all would be interested in that.

Hope y'all are having a great week & enjoy!

Tory Burch Inspired

We bought our home a little over a year and a half ago. 

And there are some rooms that I have just put a mix of decor in 

because I just can't seem to find a place for it 

or I don't know what I want to do with it yet.

When people say you never really finish your home..

Boy, they are so right!

It has taken me forever to figure out 

what I wanted to do with my dining room.

When I saw these pictures of one of the many fabulous Tory Burch Boutiques..

I knew yet again that TB is an utter genius and that I had to have it!

The Inspiration:

I started off wanting to re-paint the dining room 

but we had just done it a few months ago.

And the green was a little too much for such a small space 

so we kept what we have & I am pretty thrilled.

Hope y'all are having a great week!
