Happy Weekend

I have had enough of the cold, wind and snow, so this weekend I will be dreaming of Spring.

And this fresh, bright and cheery living room….

Happy Weekend!

Oh The Weather Outside Is Frightful, But DIY Is So Delightful!

Here is the scene at our house this morning!  Nine inches of snow in Richmond, Virginia, and we are expected to get 4-6 inches more today.  We are woefully unprepared for all of this snow.  (I bought 2 of the last 6 snow shovels at WalMart yesterday!)

I will be finishing my home office “make-under” today and hope to give you the big “TA DAH!” on Monday.  Happy weekend to all and happy snow day to my friends on the East Coast!

This Weekend I Will Be….

Staying in one of these….

Taking walks here….

And here….

Eating this….

And visiting here….

This weekend I will be………enjoying a mini-vacay at Tybee Island, Georgia!

Happy weekend!

Happy weekend and happy Fall!

These pics were taken yesterday in the pumpkin patch at the Chesterfield Berry Farm in Chesterfield, Virginia.  If you look closely, you can see MY pumpkin in the second picture — she had a ball!

Click back for a GREAT GIVEAWAY on Monday.  Here’s a hint: it was one of my picks for Perfect Prezzies….

It’s cold and rainy here on the East Coast.  I hope you are curling up with a cozy blanket, a good book and a roaring fire.  Happy weekend!

happy weekend from atlanta

 

 

Visiting Atlanta for the weekend to see my fab sister and her family.  In that spirit, I am loving this cozy kitchen featured in Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles.   The hanging chairs on either side of the sink are amazingly genious, and in conjunction with the hanging pendants, create a gorgeous symmetry. 

When can I move in?

“And will you succeed?  Yes!  You will, indeed!  
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
So…be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray
or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O’Shea,
you’re off to Great Places!  Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.  So…get on your way!“

–Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss
