Hello, dear friends... I just had to pop in and wish you a most blessed Easter weekend! I'm so thankful that God's mercies are new each day because of what Jesus did for all of us! Things have been insane both at school and at home and so I haven't been able to share much here... I keep telling myself it's just a season, and it is. But it's a challenging one right now. We had the most beautiful lavender sunrise last week and it was such … [Read more...]
Before and After: End Table Makeover
March 14, 2017 by · 2 Comments
Greetings, friends! It's been a busy several days with work and our Legacy Benefit Dinner and some fun time with friends, so I am dragging this week! It's been a while since I shared a furniture project, so I thought today was a good day to show you this end table makeover. A friend of mine {practically} gifted this pine end table to me several months ago. It took me a while to decide how I wanted to refresh it so it sat in my garage until … [Read more...]
Laundry Room Refresh: the Reveal
March 8, 2017 by · 2 Comments
Hump Daaa--ayy! Hope your week has been going well, friends! I'm working my little tail off getting ready for our Legacy Benefit Dinner on Friday, but I couldn't wait any longer to share my newly refreshed laundry room. It's truly amazing how simple changes can make a big difference! Confession: this project took longer than we thought it would. My house is 30+ years old and so lots of little things revealed themselves when we dug into … [Read more...]

Hi there! I hope you're enjoying your week so far. It's been nice to be out of school so I can tackle some of these refresh projects we need to do to get the house ready to sell. Ever wonder why we wait until we're ready to sell to get these things done??? Yesterday I jump-started the laundry room refresh that has been loooonnnnggg overdue.

2016: Highlights and Lowlights
December 31, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Where to begin? Now that I'm finally catching my breath a bit, it seemed like a good time to reflect on 2016 before turning the page to the new year... and I'm READY to turn the page! 2016 was the year of change around here... One of the biggest was opening our preschool after quite the journey. This time last year I was in the midst of sharing our Legacy Story here on the blog. But within a month or so, when Legacy was registering … [Read more...]
A Front Porch Peek!
October 27, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Hi friends... I've been under the weather this week (ugh -- who has time for that??) so I'm behind on my front porch progress, of course. But I've done enough that I thought I'd share a peek at it today after all. We've had sunny warm weather so at least it's been pleasant while I'm out there, even if it doesn't feel particularly fall-like. I think the kiddos will be trick or treating in shorts this weekend! Remember that I spray … [Read more...]

Thank you to those that entered my Country Living Fair giveaway! I've put the lucky winner at the bottom of this post... October is already flying by, isn't it? I feel like I'm already running from one thing to another, don't you? I have to say, though, October is one of my favorite months of the year with so many festive events, the gorgeous shift to fall weather and that teensy window of time to just enjoy before the madness of the … [Read more...]
School Desk Makeover
June 15, 2016 by · 5 Comments
Hello, friends... before I dive into a new furniture project here, I wanted to pause and send my heartfelt condolences to the Orlando community. We're living in a scary and crazy time where it seems evil lurks at every turn. I'm saddened by the way our leaders and presidential candidates have lurched into finger-pointing and political discussions in the wake of this. Praying diligently for clear heads to prevail and for unity in our approach … [Read more...]
