a glimpse into our master bedroom

we built our home throughout the fall of 2014 and moved in just six days before christmas. we wanted our ‘starter home’ to be near the city {this was the most important part for us}. and we have no regrets. we have a very small backyard (with lots of parks nearby) + a nice sized home for us during this phase of our lives. the best part- it’s just five minutes away from uptown charlotte… with wonderful neighbors. i feel like it’s perfect for us right now. we love to explore the surrounding neighborhoods and enjoy everything our city has to offer. although i love it and would never complain about our beautiful home, my dream is to raise our kids in an old victorian or colonial home. {i plan to pray and dream and enjoy the one we are in now until the time comes}. old homes have always had a special place in my heart and i would love nothing more than to call one ‘home’ someday. we also have some plans for our master bedroom … but for now, i simply love the bright white walls and personal touches. i hope you enjoy the mini tour as well. 

but first, i had a delicious smoothie bowl this morning + fresh florals 

making one always reminds me of my bff and her sweet soul

talk about joy! 

   

this chandelier is now above our bed

in july, mr. monaco had to go home early from the beach for work

and it happened to be his 35th birthday that week/we wouldn’t be there

so while we were packing and loading the car, i hung this up in our room as a ‘surprise’

i am excited to put different messages up as the years go on…
