welcome to our new nest
a quaint little yellow bungalow for two please…
so as of about 4:45pm today, i feel like the past several days of purging, cleaning, organizing, driving to goodwill, moving, purging some more, cleaning, organizing more etc. is COMPLETE.
*this has been the busiest week summer ever. — yet the most exciting and best one yet.
i was able to finish the last ten or so things on the crazy to-do list today~ right after nannying adorable kids (i’ve loved sitting for the stafford sisters over the past few weeks)
& most importantly, just in time for alex and jana to arrive tonight from ohio!
here is a breakdown of the past month:
june 29: become mr. and mrs. (one magical day)
june 30: italian dinner at the monacos with family
july 1: pack for costa rica
jule 2- july 11 at 4am: travel and enjoy the beautiful country of costa rica
july 11: leave that day for hilton head for a wedding
july 12: skipper.martin wedding- a blast.
july 13: rush back to be at the open house for the new bungalow
(it’s packed with people applying)
july 16: we find out- while celebrating tim’s mom’s birthday- that WE GOT THE HOUSE!!
*start packing*
july 19: changed my last name- surprisingly, not difficult at all
july 20-21: dog sat adorable, stanley and birthday celebrations for tim
july 26: the big move!!
*a huge thank you again for all of the beautiful and fantastic wedding gifts-
we are excited to finally use them!! so generous.
july 29-30: cleaned the old place from head to toe 🙁
july 31- exhausted and relieved- we are DONE!!!
out of all of my four houses in charlotte, this one is, without a doubt, the most ‘me’ 🙂
… so excited to start our first year of marriage here!
here are some photos of our new nest so far~
some of you have requested pics of everything…
thank you again for your constant messages, texts, emails
love you- and we love this house!
social gathering coming soon y’all…
my boots are ready for the kenny concert tomorrow night…
one of my favorite things about our new home- the little details
(as some of you know- i love– thanks to our best man’s aMaZinG speech)
i used rope to attach this curtain in the laundry room – a wine cooler, pierre’s materials, and a washer/dryer are behind…
our mail organizer
the lou
loramie strong- always.
we are thrilled to have a laundry room… instead of a stackable in a small closet
guest bedroom is awaiting its first guests…
thank you all again for your interests and
we hope to welcome several visitors soon!!
… for those of you who know me well- i am sure i will be rearranging decor frequently and will share more soon/might break down the rooms, but wanted to share 🙂
*now time to celebrate.

Wow, your house looks fantastic! It looks like you've lived there for years and not such a short amount of time! I also spotted The Night Circus on your shelf…such a great book! 🙂

Do you remember where you got the white picture frame that is in the pic of your kitchen counter? Love it, and know someone I would love to get it for!
