A Spring In My Step

It’s here! It’s finally here! It is officially SPRING!!!

As a true lover of winter and cold weather, I’m usually not quite ready for spring to come around.  But this winter has been the worst.  Ever.  Just miserable.  So this year I’m welcoming spring with open arms!!

To kick off the season, here are a few of my spring favorites…

And in case you didn’t know, my dad has some pretty awesome hobbies.  He’s the lead singer in a band, he builds guitars, and most recently, he builds built in mud room units! You can see the “in progress” pictures here, here, and here.  I can’t wait to see the finished product!

Following the Old Ones

I’ve always loved old homes, but owning one has taken that love to a completely different level.  They are so much work, and each older home has its quirks, but in my humble opinion, they are soooooo worth it!

Since we started our restoration, I’ve started following several “old home connoisseurs” and I thought I would share them with you here.

4. Abandoned, Old & Interesting Places – NC on Facebook

The last one is my personal favorite local to follow.  These places have so much potential, they just need someone to show them a little love!

Also, since it’s Fat Tuesday, be sure to head over to CocoCozy and check out some historic New Orleans homes! They are all so gorgeous!!
