This weekend was full of puppies and thrifting! Two amazing things in my book. We started our weekend bright and early at soccer for Hudson.
I love how cute he looks stretching:
Asher and I had fun cheering him on! I also discovered that I’m a complete stage mom. So, need to work on this! We took video of Hudson doing an obstacle course to show our families and you literally hear me the entire time coaching him. I was just doing it to keep him on track since he tends to get distracted easily, but it so funny to hear me. Ah!
After soccer we did a little thrifting. I hadn’t been to a couple of stores in a while so it was nice to see what was out there. I walked into one and immediately made a purchase. How adorable is this floral sofa?
I also came home with a chair and a bar cabinet. So, it was a win, win!
In the afternoon we went over to Hudson’s godmother’s house and met her new puppy, Pepper!
She was so cute and teeny tiny. Hudson loved her. We had a not so proud moment when Hudson decided he needed to go potty and since we had been trying to get Pepper to go on a pad he pulled his pants down in the living room to do the same. Luckily we made it to the potty on time.
We ended our day on a sweet note with a late lunch out and then a trip to the new Chocolate Works that opened up by us.
On Sunday we started our day with breakfast in our matching pj’s. I’m hooked on the matching pj’s. 🙂
After a lazy morning where we caught up on episodes of Fixer Upper So jealous of the prices of houses in Waco, Texas. I want to buy them all. Houses in the suburbs of NYC are so expensive!
Then we headed out in the cold for a little more thrifting.
How adorable is this monkey hat?! I can’t. He is so cute.
I had driven by The Shops at Suite Pieces a number of times, but have never had the time to stop in. So, on Sunday I made a trip to check it out.
It’s a consignment shop so the prices are a bit higher than a thrift store and a lot of the pieces have already been refurbished, but over all it was a pretty shop full of treasures.
Afterwards we hit up a couple of other thrift shops but they were all misses. Since the boys were so good we popped into a pet store so that they could cuddle some puppies. Hudson was in heaven.
I must admit that after all of those stops I ended my Sunday with a little nap with Asher. Such a nice way to spend the end of my weekend.
My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
In our new home, the basement was completely unfinished. It was literally one of those dark spaces that you see in horror movies and are terrified of getting locked into. However, with the square footage in this house, I knew I needed to make the basement another workable and liveable floor of the house instead […]
What to look for when it comes to picking out kitchen appliances: Leave room in your budget for appliances. When it comes to kitchen renovations everyone knows that the cabinetry and the labor of demoing and installing cabinetry is going to eat a lot of your budget. However, the second most expensive part of a […]
I don’t think I’m alone in thinking that designing a kitchen is an overwhelming undertaking. I’m an interior designer and even I find it stressful to iron out all of those details. So, when it comes time to design a kitchen I always like to partner with a kitchen designer to make sure I’m remembering […]
