We recently finished up our backyard shed project. Over a year ago, we had a downpour of rain for several days straight. The back corner of our yard, which is a low lying spot in the yard, flooded. It looked like a small lake around our shed.
The shed hadn’t been in great shape for awhile. The foundation under the floor needed to be replaced, and the flooding of the backyard kind of sealed the deal.
This might be my favorite post of the month. They’re the most fun to go back and read, it’s a little bit of food, a little bit of my Timehop addiction, reading, watching, all wrapped up in one post.
As always, I’m linking up with Shay and Sheaffer to share with you what’s going on in our life!
1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:
We did steaks over the weekend, Tikka Masala, and Chicken Pot Pie!
2: WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:
When we moved into our house. We bought our home several months before our wedding. We had been house searching for close to a year when we finally found our little home. It was such a big overwhelming decision, and I wondered then if we’d love it as much as I thought we would…
Happy Friday, friends! We’ve been surviving with Nathan gone most of this week, but he comes back tomorrow! And I’m so excited to have my guy back. Life is just better and easier with him.
I’ve got a hodgepodge of favorites this week. My favorite self-tanner, some BIG NEWS on the house front, a cute new spring dress, and of course, pictures of my babies. This wouldn’t be the Lane blog without pictures of the Lane boys! Hope you have a good weekend!
Last Sunday, the gray cold winter finally went away, and we spent all of the time outside! It’s always amazing to me how my attitude changes when I can spend some time outside, and when the boys can run around and play ball, go on walks, and explore outside. Yay for spring!
When we moved in to our house seven years ago, there were so many things that we wanted to eventually change about our house to make it feel more like our style. What we found is, life gets busy really quickly. Pretty soon, kids come along, and it’s even busier, and that list of things to update/change goes on the back burner. BUT, after spending the past year plus living and working from our home, we decided it was time for a fresh coat of paint.
Here’s a peak of our kitchen “before.”
Although, not truly a before picture, because the true before picture would be missing some can lights on the ceiling that we had installed last summer, and the horrendous fan we had over our kitchen table.
It’s HOME TOUR day! It seems like every season I declare on my blog that it’s my favorite home decor of all for that particular season. There’s something about the fresh re-set of home decorations for the season that lightens the heart and makes me fall more in love with that season. Over the past year, I’ve shared our house decorated for Christmas…
And our house decorated for fall..
Once a month I link up with two of my favorite blogs (Shay @ Mix and Match Mama and Erika @ A Little Bit of Everything), to share a “look” into some little aspect of our life. Here’s a peak back at what we’ve “looked” at this year:
Today we’re sharing a look into our pantry and fridge. I’m going to share a little about what I find I put in our cart every week to get us through the week. We have the very simple basics of bread and milk. I have thing for Dave’s Killer Bread White Bread Done Right, though. I’m not sure if it’s weird to have a favorite bread, but I will literally go to a different grocery store to procure this bread if Whole Foods is out. 😆
Around mid-March last year, our home office became one of the most important rooms in our house. I’m sure that many of you can relate. All of sudden I was spending 8, 9, sometimes 12 hours a day in my home office. I’ve made a few upgrades over that time to make things a little more comfortable.
For so long I had a plastic folding table as my desk. We upgraded to a regular desk after looking EVERYWHERE for a good fit. This desk is from World Market. It’s been nice to move up to a real desk, but I wish the drawer in the desk was a little bit larger.
Tis the season….for a Christmas home tour!
Welcome to our Christmas home! I’m going to do my best to link the things that are still in stock and available for purchase. Let me know in the comments if I missed anything that you have questions about!
This post has been a long time coming. I decorated for fall what feels like ages ago, but I’m so excited to invite you in to our house! Most of our fall decor is collected over many years, and I just mix and match items over the years to give our decor a fresh look.
Welcome to our fall home…
I’m currently sitting on my couch, holding a baby, and trying to type at the same time. If that isn’t a picture of life lately, I don’t know what is. If your’e new here, once a month, I link up with two of my favorite blogs (Shay @ Mix and Match Mama and Erika @ A Little Bit of Everything), to share a “look” into some little aspect of our life. Here’s a peak back at what we’ve “looked” at so far this year:
And I missed August and September adjusting to life with two kiddos.
Today we’re sharing how we pumpkin. So many directions I could take this, but I thought I’d share my outside decor for fall! Plus it gives me good motivation to get in gear to get all of my pumpkins out.
