This mason jar porch light is such a fun farmhouse style way to update an old porch light that you aren’t quite ready to replace. Give it a try! I’ve been working on something. Maybe a little obsessively. But who doesn’t love a good Fall entryway? Well, I’m sure there are plenty of people who […]
Late August at The Creek Line House
Right now I have myself a big ol’ case of the next-year-I’ll-do-betters. Inside, at our house, there’s pretty much nothing that indicates the pre-fall-ness of the season. Or the the Summeryness of the season either for that matter. OK, we’ve only been in this house for a month and two days, so I’ll cut myself […]
I just love a good barn.
This is our barn. Well, no. I lied. This is the barn across the creek from our house. The 150 acre property with the barn was owned by the family that used to own our house for the last 180 years or so, or at least that’s what we hear. 25 years-ish ago, they sold […]
Putting It All on the Line
Since coming to the new house, I find myself making excuses to do the laundry as often as I can…. Do you love your laundry too?
And Now We Rebuild
If we never would have moved, we would have been comfortable. We would have had all the little day-to-day, mundane details of life worked out. When to cut the grass, how often to vacuum the floors, where to fold the laundry. I would have made about 30 different amazing back-to-school crafts by now. Kennedy’s closet […]
When we first moved in…
..it looked like this: Unbelievable possibility, utter chaos, and the most peaceful place on earth, all at the same time. We have been without internet for the last two weeks. Two whole weeks, people! Eek. We’re finally back, and we’ve got a lot to share from the last 14 days. It’s going to […]
One Last Day
The house is all packed (mostly). The truck is here. Tomorrow we take off to our new/old hometown. Pardon my absence tomorrow while I’m off having the third best day of my life!
Home and it’s Wonderful Terrible Problems
There are all kinds of things wrong with our new home, but we take them all on gladly. It needs a ton of work on the inside to make it feel like a real home for us, but when you start with a shell like this, how can you go wrong? We were able to […]
How the Summers Will Be
As if having a beautiful country property on which to live out the rest of our days isn’t enough…My mother-in-law has a little place right on the beach, just a short drive away from our new house.This is how we’ll spend our Summers. How did we ever get so lucky?
Setting the Stage
I’ve shared some of these photos on my old blog before, when we were going through the home inspection stage of buying our house, but I thought I might just show off a bit again for any newbies out there. So this is where the magic will happen: The view from the back yard. Looking […]
