for the past week, i have woken up to an addition in my bed....my 5 yrs old creeps in around 4:00 AM and then proceeds to want to talk, ask for water, and toss and turn for what seems like hours afterwards.  today, it's taken its toll b/c i cannot seem to wake up.....

very well said Liz :)

don't y'all wish summer would never end!!  we're heading to beaufort for the water festival, which means lots of boats tied together, fun music, sand bar, boat drinks, and hanging w/ good friends!  a perfect way to enjoy the summer!

i am working on two houses at the beach and both are using super calming color palettes- mostly variations of white.  usually, i'm all about color but right now i am loving this!

 be kind...it's monday.

 

my husband comes home today after being in london for a week for work and i couldn't be more of a happy camper!!  being a single parent is hard work people!  i hope y'all have a wonderful weekend!!!

wordless wednesday......ok, maybe not wordless b/c i love that stripe chair and that table instead of an island and those pleated shades as pendants :)
