around my home // succulent sanctuary

As of now our backyard is basically dirt and trees.
Nothing wrong with that, easy to maintain that way.
Although I do long for some rich green grass and a fun area for backyard entertaining, I happy with what we have at this point.
I finally decided to add a cute little area to bring some life to it out there.
Space to retreat to for coffee or watching the kids play.
Having fun pulling it all together and enjoying it as well.
Can you tell that I might like succulents....

around my home // a girl's space

Back in December we decided to give the kids their own rooms.
A little space in the house to call their own.
I decided to keep my daughter's room with the black and white theme, but decided to add some pops pink and gold. (You can see what the what it looked like >>> HERE <<< )
I had plans for a few DIY projects before I posted, but life is so busy that I just haven't got to do any of them (planning for the near future though, so stay tuned)
 
My favorite is hearing my daughter reading from her room.
In her own little world, with out a care expect for those words on the pages.
I find myself sitting in the corner imagining her growing up in this space.
Will it change as she grows?
What will her style be like?
Will she love antiques as much as her mother does?
 
As I tuck her in at night, I kiss her goodnight and pray she knows just how much I love her.
