While there are still a few details to finish up before turkey day, the kitchen is finally cleaned up enough for “virtual company,” and I have even added a few Thanksgiving touches. Today I am excited to have you over for a look at how our kitchen renovation is shaping right up! Read more

Hello friends and welcome back for another post in my weekly Pin Away Wednesday series! Even though there is still a little over a month until fall, school started back today in our area which is always the unofficial end of summer. My family is headed back to the beach in a couple of weeks for a weekend, which means I am certainly not out of summer mode just yet, but after that I will be all about fall! Fall is my favorite season and I have several fall-related Pinterest boards that I will be sharing over the next couple of months as part of this series. For my first fall post during this transitional time of year, I am sharing highlights from my Farmhouse Fall Decor board. If you love farmhouse style and all things fall, get ready to pin away!
