life with two sets of twins
Happy Friday guys! This months FF blog is going to be dedicated to all things winter. The picture above is a throwback to our engagement session and one of my favorite pictures to have out in the winter! #cozyvibes
It’s full on snowing here in Michigan which makes me want to skip Thanksgiving to go right to Christmas! We even set up our Christmas decorations already! Growing up, my family always decorated the day after Thanksgiving but I can’t wait that long!
Our master bedroom has always been the least of our concerns since we moved into our house seven years ago. During that time we were both finishing college, getting married and having another set of twins! Once I started to notice that EVERY room of the house was getting taken over by toys, I wanted at least one room that was completely mine.
As you may know, our master bedroom has been in “re-decorate” mode for a few months now. We painted and got some new furniture but it still needs all the finishing touches to make it feel complete. After that is finished, I’d love to turn to our master bath and give that a much needed update too! (Credit: thecharmingbenchcompany.com)
First of all, it’s pink. Why in the world did no one tell me that pink was a stupid idea? It looks like it should be McKenzie and Kasey’s bathroom! Well until we are ready to jump into all of that, I decided we definitely needed some more shelving in this room.
It’s almost that time to start breaking out all the Christmas décor! Although, I have seen a TON of people already doing this – even putting up their Christmas trees! I would so be on board for that but I already know this year will be tough in regards to decorating. Two toddlers and a Christmas tree full of shiny ornaments don’t mix. I’m still debating on what I’m going to do about that situation.
Usually I am the type of person that would rather buy something at full price than try to attempt to make it myself. I wish I was half as crafty or had an eye for design as a lot of you are. I love following Instagram accounts of people who decorate their homes with beautiful “farmhouse” decor. The farmhouse look is TOTALLY my style and I have dreams of turning my ranch style home into my farmhouse Pinterest board. If only I could find a real farmhouse with lots of land, right? Well, I decided to take baby steps and MAYBE one day my house will be full of neutrals, old wood and shiplap.
