Today I woke up refreshed- and ready to take on the challenge of actually decorating our new house, putting things on the walls, maybe painting a wall or two.
I had to take a break from the house to really come back and appreciate it again, instead of seeing it as a major challenge to get in order.
First of all we came back to a a very pretty blooming bush. Anyone have any idea what this is?
It has a million buds on it and it smells AMAZING
Here is a closer look
And best of all- the girly eating her lunch next to it
I got sucked into some design blogs this morning- oh man I love this stuff. Then of course it was off to Pinterest to do some pinning.
Here is my inspiration for the day

Love the inspiration pics…especially the turquoise ottoman pic…my new favorite color! I think that blooming bush is a magnolia but I’m not positive. Ask your neighbors…I bet they know! Good luck decorating. I also love the quote about not giving up what you want most for what you want now. That is me to a tee, “oh this will do”…never does! Have fun!
