We rarely go out on a Friday night, because we are typically so wiped by the end of the week that we just want to go bed and watch Shark Tank. This past Friday though we had dinner plans with my sister and her boyfriend, Steve. Off we went to try out a restaurant called Traif.
We started the night with drinks at XIXA and it had the chicest decor!
We then had a bunch of different plates at Traif. If you are in the area I would highly recommend it. Their braised short rib sliders and baked muenster cheese were two of my favorite dishes.
The best part about going out on a Friday night was that it made our weekend feel an extra day longer. We must go out on Friday nights more often. Thanks for the invite Danay and Steve!
On Saturday we started at soccer bright and early!
Soccer was short lived because Hudson and another little boy collided and Hudson got a horrible bloody nose. All of us ended up with drops of his blood on us. Not a fun start to the day.
We continued our day with a trip to the Duralee Factory, because they are closing! They are moving all of the factories to North Caroline so the outlet is only going to be open a couple more weeks and then gone forever! So sad. I went to stock up on anything and everything that caught my eye.
After that we headed out to a farm for their baby animal day! The boys loved it!

Then it was home to get the backyard ready for the warm weather.
On Sunday the boys spent most of the day outside playing:
While Jon and I tackled prepping items for the One Room Challenge and taking turns watching the boys.
Once all of the projects were finished we headed over to Grandma and Pop Pop’s where the boys did a little gardening:
While Jon and I installed everything we had worked on earlier in the day. Here is a little peek of one of the projects.
This one room challenge is no joke. We worked on it all day on Sunday and I still have quite a to do list to tackle before Thursdays reveal. Hopefully I will get everything done!

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 […]
The time has come to finally share our new kitchen reveal. For those of you that have been with us from the beginning, we bought a house right before the pandemic hit. It was a total gut job from top to bottom. We started our demo and then the world shut down. Enter the delays […]
Picking out paint colors for a new home can be overwhelming. I find that many times when I meet with a new client the entire house is simply just painted white or a light gray. Now, I think there is a time and place for those colors, but with paint, there is just so much […]
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 […]
I am incredibly excited to see Thursdays reveal. Everything looks amazing so far! Keep up the good work. You’re almost there.
