I wanted to share a few pics from our house with yall. I love the home we have created together. Such a comfortable and cozy place to retreat to. We are slowly getting to know the neighbors. Some have been watching us work so hard on the yard ( ok Drew has been working hard, I have just planted a few things and sat outside drinking tea while he works ) that they have been cleaning up and fixing up their own houses. I don't know if it is comforting or nerve racking when a stranger says "You have the best house on the block for sure!" Anyway we are excited the people around us are showing a little pride of their own. Maybe soon we will have a neighborhood cookout, Not likely!
Front door, complete with a homemade wreath and chalk board Welcome sign
Still questioning the "girly" chair pads but loving my wedding lanterns on the table. This is my favorite reading spot in the evenings, and my favorite place to watch my husband work :)
Baker's Rack that you see when you walk in the front door. I got those awesome burlap candle holders from Neeley and Lane for my Bday and I really like our Neal est. sign at the top.
We have been having a few struggles with our dogs as of late. Buster is turning into quite the escape artist. Recently he has been nawing and scratching some old pickets in the back yard that line the driveway to go out on a little adventure. Drew and I came home from a movie one night to find both dogs in the driveway waiting to greet us. Drew got new posts, to replace the ones Buster broke and moved their dog houses in front of part of the fence so they might lay in there instead of escaping. That worked for a couple of days...
Wednesday I was out running errands with Mom on a long lunch break and got a call they were out again. I pulled down our street to see Cooper sitting on the front porch and Buster halfway down the street just standing in the middle of it. They both came running to me, I am sure they were beyond grateful to see me and not their dad. Buster had busted through 3 pickets this time. It looked like a war zone. I am sure Cooper was just glad to go along for a little adventure with his brother.
Needless to say we are re-evaluating how to contain our escape artists during the day while we are at work. Cooper is at the groomer today so no telling what Buster will get into on his own :) But we love them anyway!
We are having our first overnight guest tonight... Laura Beth we are so excited!
I hope you all have an absolutely wonderful weekend!!
