Hello from Haven! I arrived in Atlanta yesterday afternoon and I’m already having a great time meeting so many wonderful ladies! I have a busy conference schedule today, but didn’t want to miss out on Five Minute Friday, so I have a quick but cute project to share with you this morning. A couple of weekends ago I hosted a “Stock the Kitchen” themed wedding shower for my soon to be sister-in-law. My brother-in-law and his fiancé love to cook, and since the guest list included all of the ... View the Post

Boys Hangout Room Reveal
As a Christmas present for the boys, we updated Beckett's old bedroom into a playroom and hangout room where the boys can spend time relaxing, playing, and watching movies. We revealed this updated space to the boys on Christmas day, but throughout the past month I've been sharing the makeover process here on the blog as part of the New Year New Room challenge. Today I'm so excited to share all the photos of the updated hangout room! The other seven talented bloggers participating in the ... View the Post
Modern Master Bedroom Makeover
Whew! The One Room Challenge is serious! Serious pressure, and serious motivation! It's been an exhausting six weeks! I was working down to the wire, but now that our master bedroom redesign is finally complete, I am ecstatic to be sharing the reveal photos today! Let me pause for just a moment to catch you up. The One Room Challenge is a twice annual blogging event hosted by the fabulous Linda, of Calling it Home. During the ORC, bloggers redesign an entire room in just six weeks time, ... View the Post
Adding Engraved Plates to Frames
We've all seen pretty engraved photo frames, but what if you have a frame that can't be engraved, or that you don't want to permanently alter? Simply add a sticky-backed engraved plate! When I was in college I studied abroad in Brisbane, Australia for six months and had the opportunity to travel all around the continent {and beyond}. Shortly after returning home I picked up a gorgeous blue 9-photo frame on clearance at Pottery Barn and filled it full of my favorite Australia photos to hang in ... View the Post
Brilliant Ways to Organize the Garage
Our garage used to be my dirty little secret. I would go out of my way to not let friends of family ever sneak a peek in there because it was so bad. SO bad. Like "no room to park two cars in a three car garage" bad! Last fall we finally reclaimed our garage and I shared lots of pictures with you when we finished. Since then, I've gotten quite a few comments suggesting that the photos looked good because it was just a "staged" version of our garage, and that it wouldn't look that way once we ... View the Post
Rings Around the World: Our Wedding Ring Selfie Photo Tradition
You know that list of "must have" wedding photos that most couples give to the photographer in advance of the big day? Things like the bride's mom helping her zip up her dress, the groom's expression as the bride walks down the aisle, the cutting of the cake, and a close up of the wedding bands. Yeah...we forgot to make a list like that. We planned every detail of the wedding to a T, but giving the photographer a list of photos didn't even cross our minds. Our photographer did a wonderful ... View the Post
What You Get for Valentine’s Day When You’re Married to a Blogger…
I hope everyone had a fantastic Valentine's Day, or simply an enjoyable Saturday if Valentine's is not your jam! Scott and I were originally going to stay home with our boys, but after finding a last minute babysitter, we left the house with no real plans other than to spend a few kid-free hours together. It ended up being a crazy evening that finally culminated with us having dinner and exchanging gifts around 11 pm. When the babysitter arrived, we left the house with no clear destination. ...

{planning} 2015 List Making: Decorating and Organizing Plans for the New Year
Are you a list maker? I am! I use the Reminders app on my iPhone to make lists for everything in my life, from shopping lists and general to dos, to lists of future projects and plans for each room of our home. We spent last week enjoying lots of family time in the mountains, and on the way home we got stuck in traffic. Rather than being frustrated by the delay, Scott and I used the time {while the kids gloriously slept in the backseat} to review our project lists for each room of our house - ... View the Post
{entertaining with style} One Year in a Flash First Birthday Party
I finally found time to go through all of the photos from Beckett’s 1st birthday party, so I thought I would share the details about this fun event. While I know that he will never remember this party, it was still important to me that it be fabulous (but without breaking the bank). Also, because the party was only a couple of weeks after Christmas, I wanted to keep the prep time manageable. I started scouring Pinterest for birthday party inspiration soon after ... View the Post
Tour Our Home
Welcome! If you love getting an opportunity to peek inside someones home as much as I do, then you've come to the right place, because I'm opening the doors and showing you around! Before I show you around, let me give you a little background... When we were first married, Scott and I lived in a loft-condo in downtown Denver, which suited us perfectly! We love the city and we loved living within walking distance of all our favorite things - art, theater, sports, and good restaurants. Our place ... View the Post
How to Choose the Perfect Gray Paint for YOUR Home
One of the most common requests I get from friends, family, and clients alike, is for help choosing the right shade of gray paint. Each and every time, I know they aren't going to like my answer, but I have to give it them, and to you straight... there's no one gray paint that looks good in every home! Despite a million blog posts out there claiming to have found the "perfect gray paint," the truth is that the perfect shade of gray for my home may be totally wrong in yours. And ... View the Post
Fun Family Christmas Traditions
I wish we could enjoy the Christmas season with our family year round! Of course, logically, I realize that what makes it special is that it's just one month each year... but it's such a magical and wonderful time, especially with young kids! It was important to me that we start establishing holiday traditions with our boys from an early age, so that they would grow up with cherished memories of those traditions. I love hearing about other family's traditions, so today - as we officially start ... View the Post
