Skyline Drive & The Apple House | (2016 flashback)

This time three years ago we were waiting to close on our first home. We were antsy with anticipation and I, of course, was daydreaming of how to decorate each room. I was in the middle of working on my Thankful Challenge posts here on the blog and had ideas to do more. And on […]

Fall Decor | 2017

When we put in the offer on our home a year ago this week, the anticipation of our first Autumn in our new home was pretty great. I couldn’t wait to get out my little orange bin full of decor and kick back with a warm cup of cider in an owl mug. Finding an […]

May Your Blues Be of the Ocean & Sky

Two weeks ago, I was off to the beach. And today I wanted to share a few highlights with you all! Let’s start with this gem. You know you’re in the South when you can wear the Confederate flag as a bathing suit. They take this flag pretty seriously, and, in fact, as soon as […]

If you ask me, 2014 went by pretty darn quickly! It feels like I blinked and even the Holiday season was gone.
