a grateful heart

hi! hope you had a great weekend. peonies- i had a great time taking over the insta feed and connecting with many of you yesterday. hope your weekend was amazing. yesterday i also shared a few firsts on my post, easy like sunday morning {allergies, covered porches…} i am excited to share our outdoor living space with you all soon- it was a fantastic experience with mr. monaco.
{lots of work but all worth it} 
any exciting things happen over the weekend for you? 
was it rainy and cozy yesterday where you live, too?
 my heart is grateful for:
– the texture of wood
– ikea {it’s a love/hate relationships, but i ultimately i love it- esp. on a week night}
– days with no plans
– cooking out under our new market lights
– hotdogs on a rooftop friday night
– followed by cocktails and desserts at crave bar in uptown
– non-fiction literature
– sitting on the porch in the rain reading/blogging
– grilled cheese sandwiches
– the color mint green
– real simple magazines
– our new lace curtains {photos coming soon- love}
– coffee dates {our next #simplygreycoffeetour is this friday 4.24.15}
– meeting some of our new neighbors
– we bought two of the world market pillows in the collage above {these were made for me}
– rifle paper co.

what are you most grateful for this week?

Grateful Heart w/ Ember Grey
hope your weekend went well!

    Yes my heart is grateful for the colour mint too! I made a necklace with mint beads and I'm obsessed with it. Makes me happy every time I look at it.

    I love your photos every time! The colors are so vibrant and rich 🙂 I am also a sucker for IKEA – hate going to the place, but love the selection they offer and usually end up buying something lol.
