Star Spangled Fourth

July 5, 2014July 28, 2015

After all of the early week car and bat drama, we were exhausted but so happy to see the fourth roll around. We spent the day at the pool with great friends and then hosted our fifth annual Independence Day Low Country Boil!! The weather here was just perfection – a light breeze and high in the low eighties. I enjoyed myself SO much that I failed to take any pictures at the soiree. I just have a few random out-takes to share…

It was a relaxed and fun evening spent celebrating our great freedoms with friends and family!!

Happy Birthday, America!
xoxo

With a cool glass of lemonade on the porch, it’s a snack the neighborhood boys can’t say no to :-) Since the baby had the duty of helping me grocery shop during the school year, I’ve been dragging John along this summer. … Read More

A Few Additions

June 30, 2014July 28, 2015

I’m continuing to plug away at the family office, making a few additions to the space over the last couple of weeks. If you will recall, this is the look we’re going for here. Well, after much hemming and hawing, I finally splurged on the dresser pictured above! It’s the Santerno dresser in Grigio Carmine… Read More

Sunday Supper {Cheese Grits & Roasted Tomatoes}

June 29, 2014July 28, 2015

So, to say I’m obsessed with this meal would be putting it lightly. Mother made it down in Savannah and I’ve since whipped it up twice back home. I served it once on it’s own as a veggie supper and a second time as a side with our favorite Barefoot Contessa flank steak. Cheese Grits… Read More
