Welcome to our lovely home where we constantly have naked children running around.
Ahem.
Hey, laundry is not my favorite past-time. If you have boys then you know that…clothes…are optional until you are five.
I try to keep my house fairly picked up and clean. You know, just in case you were to pop in and say hello. But, my kids? I can’t always promise you they are “visitor ready”. In fact, they will most likely need 3 minutes to throw on some pants.

We built our home in 2011 and ever since…I’ve had my dad working on a constant Pinterest project.
Lucky for us, he is free labor. I wouldn’t have been able to do HALF of the stuff in our home if it weren’t for his help.
If you are curious as to where I got something please click on the links under each room and it will take you to a page dedicated to that specific room (and a source list will be at the end of each post).
Some of the new room makeovers do not have source lists yet (but are coming soon)!
– Exterior –
– Bathroom –
Sorry to start with the bathroom, but we just re-did our hallway bathroom with subway tile and marble floors. I am in love.
Post coming soon.

I have updated this dining room about 900 times. The latest look…
The old dining room looked like this…

– Living Room –
Our living room gallery wall is ever evolving, but here is the post on the EXPLORE wall that I used to have up.
We added a little pop to our fireplace by using trim and paint… check that out here.
– Nursery –
Miss Nella’s room is one of my all time favorites!
Post coming soon.
It used to be an elephant themed nursery for when SJ was a little guy. It was so fun to turn it all pink!
– Master Bedroom –
The original design of our master bedroom was dark and dreary. I have lightened things up a bit since then.
It went from dark to light… see details for the white and bright here.
And then we got a new bed to go with the new bright white and it looks even brighter! LOL!
Post coming soon.
If you like the corner shelves above be sure to stop by my “How to Build a Corner Shelf” tutorial.
And if you want to take a walk through my closet to see how I stay so organized {and hear why I hide out in here when the kids are being crazies}!
– Master Bathroom –
The old master bathroom details are here. I am working on an updated source list.
– Boys Bedroom –
The latest big boy room is the sports themed bunk bed room.
The boys play musical beds so you never know which kid will be sleeping where. Haha! The other boys bedroom we have is set up to be a shared room as well.
Pop over to my Big Boy Room post to see the old transportation themed room.
Or check out this Alphabet Themed Toddler Bedroom.
That turned into this robot room.
Oh, and by the way…I love to decorate my house with my kids art. See how.
– Playroom –
You can visit my Playroom Decor post to see more playroom decorating ideas or check out my toy storage post!
– Basement –
The basement that my husband claims is “A Pinterest Cave” and he was hoping for a “Man Cave”. #oops
Update: I’ve converted the basement to a man cave playroom. Stay tuned…
As I mentioned, our home is a constant work-in-progress! I would just like to thank my husband for putting up with my 18 million ideas and more importantly, for footing the bill on those 18 million ideas.
And because I want you all to know that I truly am not superwoman and do not keep my house THIS clean {it’s all a front}… pop over to see my HOME TOUR SPOOF.
Trust me, you will instantly feel better about yourself.
You can find all of my projects HERE!
Thanks for stopping by…now next time give me some notice!

I need your talent to decorate my house. We’ve been in our house for 3 years, have 2 little boys and our house is a blank canvas because I have no clue what im doing.
