What's on my Mind

By this time during the summer, I start to feel the downhill slide (you know...back to school).  My pinterest boards would be filling up with school related pins, internet searches would consist of new lessons and behavior mod. plans, and I would be scouring the office supply for the latest and greatest in markers, pens, and organizing supplies; this summer is different.

Here is our finished house!
This summer though, my brain has been consumed by the thoughts of moving and decorating.  I am so anxious to be in the house!  We have had a few setbacks, nothing serious, just paperwork business, nevertheless we are ready to be in the house.  We are hoping to close this week.

So instead of some neat lesson plan, cute bulletin board, or activities for kids.  You get to see some of my Pinspirations for the new house...hope you enjoy!

Here are my TOP 5 + 1 (from the hubby) :)  (PS...I taught him how to use Pinterest and now he is hooked!  Just don't tell him I said so!)

For the breakfast area:
Pub Table & 4 24" Barstools

For the stairway:
Picture frames on staircase wall

For the playroom:

For Chloe's room:

Also, Chloe's room:
paint the daybed ????

And one of my husband's additions:
EXPEDIT TV storage unit IKEA The shelves can be placed to the left or right. Choose the placement that suits you best.

If you want to see more of my Pins go here.  This is not our first home, but it is definitely the home we have dreamed of for many years.  We are beyond blessed to be able to have a house to make into a beautiful home.  Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated as we get ready to settle into our new home!

  1. Congrats on the new home! I'm waiting to move in to ours too but I think we have about 3 weeks left. They are cutting it close to starting school and moving at the same time. I love the colors in the play room.

    1. Thanks! Good luck to you, too! Moving is stressful, isn't it?! We don't start school until August 15, so I have a little while. Decorating home and school at the same time...whew!! :)

  2. I love all your pins! I'm in the process of buying a home right now too, and I can't wait to decorate! I'm also a fan of your husband being a Pinterest addict;) Enjoy the decorating! Can't wait to see pictures once you're done decorating.

    1. Thanks, but that is actually not my house. I liked it too off of Pinterest. Click on the source under the pic to see the pin and the person that really did it. I do plan on doing something along the same lines :)
