After living with my parents for 3 months, we finally sold the Ft.Worth house (praise God!), and we moved into this little jewel. Warning: These pictures look better than the actual house. Warning again: This is the cutest parts of the house... 

it goes down hill in part 2. 

Let's start in the backyard, its HUGE and the dogs love it, plenty of squirrels for chasing.

Also these pictures were taken one morning, this was the actual color outside, lovely. 

Mornings are indeed from Jesus. 

A nook with our Austin in 1887 map, Hunter Trunk, and Ikea pillows!

(somebody forgot to shut the roll top.. crap revealed)

Our previous TV stand now just a buffet

Roll top = hide lots o' crap.

Our Ikea Billy Bookcases are now serving as our "cupboard" due to lack of cabinets.

And now let's draw your attention up to the kitchen ceiling... yes, its a drop ceiling.

Try not to be jealous.

I'm BEAMing

I am so excited to be back with new blog members and daily posts! 

I will be posting Mondays about the store and home design, 

Kendall will post on Tuesdays about Fashion, 

Sophee will post Wednesdays about wedding planning and such, 

Danielle R. will post about cooking and health on Thursdays... 

and Danay will post Fridays about ... something :)

Rob and I are continuously looking at houses to buy. We currently live in a rental house... and we're done with it... but our lease says otherwise. So we escape our tiny cubical rental by searching homes and looking at pictures.

I have decided I want an older home because it has more character... and by character I mean BEAMS. Beams are so beautiful and add so much charm!

My "beam" now... go popcorn!

Don't paint the beams. ever. Even though this room does look good.
