The Quarterly 09
Summer is in full swing (and I won’t accept any other sentiments until it is over on September 21). What a great summer it has been! A European trip, some home updates, a few new summer outfits, and books that I have been using as references for a few friend projects that I get to be on text for. Oh, and my skin care holy grails, Things that Caught My Eye, and a Coastal Cottage Girls Room Design Board.

The Quarterly 08
Well we are back from Spring Break and officially have a driver. Time is a thief. Not to waste it… Here is what I have to share- a spring birthday tablescape and menu, what we did in the Bahamas with our teens and parents, a book, a show I loved then hated, a show I hated then loved, Spring Things that Caught My Eye, and a Design Board.

Spring Break Beach Vacation
When you live north, going south almost becomes essential when March and April come around. I can’t wait! So, without further ado, here is what I am packing for our Spring Break Beach Vacation.

February: Things I Wore, Things I Read & Everything Else
I’ve been doing a lot of trying to get through February. The 60 degree days definitely helped and gave some hope as we head toward Moody March. It’s been a fairly random month of planning possible summer trips and presenting to them to our family of four, some clothing purchases, creating design boards, kitchen dreaming (not mine this time, thank goodness!), reading, and perusing things that have Caught My Eye. There isn’t time to touch on all of the randomness, but keep reading for what I’ve got.

Caught My Eye: Valentine’s Day Edition
February is upon us. Here’s to hoping it doesn’t feel as long as the 5002 days of January. This is a big month in our house. My birthday, our son’s birthday, Valentine’s Day. Admittedly, Valentine’s Day is often pushed to the wayside, but if you celebrate, here are some ideas.

A Vintage Basement
A Vintage Basement We recently gave our vintage basement (circa, 1928 to be exact) a glow up. Did I use that term correctly? I don’t even know. But I did recently get to do a fit check with our teen so feeling very in lately. Anyway, I am sure I have shared that we were constantly hemming and hawing over redoing the basement. I loved the color, but it felt like we needed to move the basement from our kids’ younger years to be more in line with the current needs of our family.

The Quarterly 07
Hi and Happy New Year! We were just talking about whether it’s still acceptable to use that greeting so far into January. I think it’s fine. So, let’s catch up! Read on for our projects as of late, projects ahead, a random design board (because a little creativity is just what January calls for), the latest Things That Caught My Eye, recent travel, and the best books (yeah- I’m calling it already).

Gift Ideas for Grandparents
Grandparents are so special and their love for their grandkids is unmatched. Perhaps that is why it feels so hard to find that “perfect gift” for them. Below are some options, although I’m sure they will all also say that they just want to spend time with you 🙂
