Home Update

Happy Friday! It’s been a busy week around here since moving in on Monday, but it’s starting to feel more like home. I snapped some pictures of the outside if you want to take a peek.

Home Update

I purchased both of my rugs from Wayfair here and here.

Home UpdateWe have a screened in back porch, and we’ve already eaten every meal outside. My round placemats are from Pier 1, and the striped one is from Pier 1 also but is no longer available.

Home UpdateHome UpdateWe have a pool, and our grandson is thrilled! He’s been enjoying it.

Home UpdateWe live in a subdivision with 5 acre lots, so the views are beautiful. I love Kentucky this time of year when everything is blooming.

Home UpdateMy Dad always gets me ferns for Mother’s Day, and he dropped them off yesterday to put on my front porch.

Home UpdateThat’s it for now. We still have a lot of unpacking to do, but it’s all good!

Thank you for taking time out of your day to stop by my blog. I’m on FacebookPinterest, and my favorite one, Instagram.

  1. Love, love, love your home…especially the double front doors. I’m ordering the rugs and hoping for the same look. How did you hang your magnolia wreaths…I don’t see a wreath hanger. My doors are 8 feet tall, and my wreath hanger places the wreaths a bit too high.

  2. Prayers for your father-in-law. I LOVE the front porch. Would you share the sizes of the rugs? I want the same look!

  3. Prayers for your father-in-law. The front porch looks amazing! Do you mind sharing what sizes the rugs are? There are several choices and I want the same look that you have!

  4. After seeing your picture, I knew I would have to go to the Wayfair website soon. I just bought both of those rugs for my front porch! I am looking forward to seeing pictures of your new home as you decorate the inside.
    Praying for your FIL.

  5. Thank you Cyndi! You are such an inspiration in all you share! Happy Mother’s Day to you and all the other wonderful women who follow your blog and website.

  6. Prayers for your father-in-law. My father-in-law died a month ago so we will spend Mother’s Day with my mother-in-law. I love the outside of your house. Your property looks so different than our semi-desert 🙂

  25. Very beautiful Cyndi! I hope your father in law does well. Where did you get the wreaths for your front doors? Love the magnolias

  26. So sweet of you to share pics to give us a “sneak peak” of your new home. It looks beautiful!! I love how you staged the front door to look so welcoming. Can’t wait to see the pics of the interior as you settle in, and to see your new website, which I know you are preparing.

    Sorry your father-in-law is back in the hospital. Praying he will be ok.

    Early Happy Mother’s Day to you. Love BFTH today.

    Blessings to you,

  30. He IS always faithful… and I’m grateful that I cannot understand His ways. Because if I could then He’d be human like me, and we’d all be in a mess! 🙂
    Thanks for sharing so much of yourself with all of us.
    I’m praying for your family!

  33. Very nice Cyndi! Screened in porches are so awesome and the Kentucky land is very calming. Keeping your father in law, his wife, and all of you in my prayers. Happy early Mother’s Day!

    1. I just ordered from Pottery Barn… it kicked the free shipping code out and charged me I then had to call customer service… The over charge was $11 … still waiting for a new email etc

  34. Beautiful, Cyndi! I just commented to Traci that I like the idea of layering rugs at the front door. A screened porch is one of my favorite things!! I wish you a wonderful weekend, while remembering that your Father in Law is in failing health.

  35. Cyndi, It is so pretty and peaceful. Can you tell me where you got the urns for the ferns? Happy Mother’s Day!
