Head on over and check out the fun lists I've made. List lover over here. [Insert emoji with the girl in the pink shirt raising her hand.] Or you can read about Avelist's interview with yours truly too!
TWO | AZALEAS
It's the Azalea Festival here in Wilmy this weekend, and the weather couldn't be more perfect for it. Azaleas are blooming everywhere throughout the city...even in our new front yard. :)
They absolutely coincide with the neon pink theme that has infested the blog this week. :)
Happiest, girliest color ever.
THREE | MUG
Sigh...as if coffee doesn't make me happy enough in itself. Coffee in a cute mug is the icing on the cake, right? This is my newest mug crush. |

FOUR | HOME OWNING: WEEK 1
We closed on our first home last Thursday, I met with our contractor on Friday, and work on the house began on Monday. Drywall was evened and patched up, carpets were ripped out, painting has begun, and the hardwoods will be delivered tomorrow afternoon! (!!!!!) Hoping to be all moved in by Easter!
Here's a pic I didn't share on Insta. It shows our new "greige" color in better light.
To the left is our currently yellow kitchen and yellow laundry room. They're both about to get painted! Gray in the kitchen and blue-ish gray in the laundry room! (I have a thing for gray...if you haven't noticed. It was even the color of the bridesmaid dresses at our wedding!)
FIVE | TINYPUP
Somebody is going to miss the skylights in our rental. Amelia follows the skylight for sunbathing throughout the day. Good thing our new home has TONS and TONS of natural light. :)
I love me some gray too!! And congrats on the wood floors! So exciting!!

ReplyDeleteOh I'm so excited and jealous! And don't forget, will be stealing all of your paint swatches ;)
ReplyDeleteTell me, how/what did you choose for your wood floors? did you go through a chain ie, lowe's/home depot? Or did you go through a local lumber yard?
ahh I love it! I cannot wait to see it all in photos when it is done :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see that house! Your little pup girl is too adorable!! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteAzalea pink is a color like none other -- perfection! And How cute is the pup sunbathing! Adorable.

Your griege color on the walls is pretty perfect. I'm all about the greys too. Grey with white base and moulding is everything :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on closing on your first home! So exciting!! :) xx
ReplyDeleteOH my gosh, congrats on the house!!!! That's so exciting! I can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteAh the azalea festival! We haven't been in a couple of years but it is definitely one of my most favorite parts about Wilmington! Home ownership is always one big project, but so much fun! Enjoy, doll!
ReplyDeletei'm cracking up over your pup! so hilarious.
ReplyDeleteaw! Amelia looks so cute in that little spot of sun! My dog does the same- just follows it around throughout the day :) Congrats on your first home!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the Azaleas, the mug and the sun bathing pup! Can't wait to see your entire home :)
ReplyDeleteLove the Azaleas! I need to plant some at my house :)
ReplyDeleteEverything in our house we bought this past November was yellow and green. I painted it all in shades of grey! So much better.
ReplyDeleteSo excited azaleas are in bloom for azalea fest this year! We're heading to wilm tomorrow to enjoy the garden tour and hopefully some boat/beach time with my parents, and a quick run to Get strawberries :) it is by far my favorite time of year in Wilmington
ReplyDeletei love lists as well! i need to check that out. congrats on closing on your first home, cant wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteHaha! My pup does the exact same thing with the sun - she loves this time of year when it starts shining in the house, and will lay wherever it is!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you picked to paint! Neutrals are my fave :) When we bought our house it was all yellow too (along with many other awful bright colors - um smurf blue kitchen? no joke) and that was the first thing gone! Not a spec of yellow paint left ;) haha!
Have a great weekend!! xx
I'm looking at grays for our house too! You're moving so fast with everything. I'm jealous! Best of luck with the upgrades.
ReplyDeleteThose azaleas are so gorgeous! You are so right- hot pink is the ultimate girly color! I hope you have a great weekend and enjoy the festival. :)
ReplyDeletexo Always, Abby
Beautiful azaleas! I always loved going to the festival. I love the greige color you chose as well! That's the color we chose for our guest bathroom and ended up liking it so much we did our entire living room in greige! Looking forward to more pictures of your beautiful new home!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new home! Our terrier and cat follow the light around the house too ha. Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new house! Something that I learned from renovating our house is that everything takes longer than you think. ;)
ReplyDeleteAww love how she moves with the sunlight!!
ReplyDeleteLove those pretty flowers! What a lovely mark of spring!
ReplyDeleteHi there! Stopping by from the link up! I hope you take time to enjoy the home reno process. It will feel so good to be in a new clean space that you love :)

ReplyDeleteYou know how alike we are?? Well let me tell you, we're doing gray master, kitchen and laundry room! haha I adore it! LOVE the windows in your living room in that latest insta pic lady!!
ReplyDeleteI liked a lot about this post, BUT when I got to A following the sky light? Cutest thing ever? And makes your place look like the darkest place ever. =)
ReplyDeleteSo happy you guys found your house...and loving the greige!! You should probably give Martha Stewart a call and have her add that color to her line right.now.
