Fresh Picks: May 2011

Happy May! We can’t believe it is already May… not sure where April went it flew by so fast!

Our schedules are packed full this month with the new house we are rehabbing, revamping A Design Story, helping my sister-in-law and brother get settled into their home here {which means decorating too}, starting and finishing up some projects around our casa, planting a family garden at my brother’s house and a few design projects locally. BUSY, but exciting!

In order to get the month started out right, it’s time for the Monthly Favorites…

Here’s the Breakdown…

1. Nautical Pillow by Amazon

2. Eco Garden Cup by Patina

3. Pear Canister by Z Gallerie

4. Place Mat by Crate & Barrel

5. Flower Cook & Serve Containers by Patina

6. Bird Tea Light by Patina

7. Votive Candles by Calypso @ Target

  • Shout out for National Pet Day to Finley who came at the perfect time to bring our family joy! After losing our beloved Bentley, I really thought I wouldn’t want another dog for awhile. Just about a month later last fall, this precious Mini Goldendoodle captured my heart from @d_shalom_goldendoodles! To say we are in love with him would be an understatement! He is super sweet, smart and just the best! Love his little heart shaped nose! #nationalpetday #minigoldendoodle #goldendoodle Dog bed from @tjmaxx . . . #lakewoodranch #bestdog #beatdogever #furbabies #dogbed #bohodog #sarasota #dogsofinstagram

  • Happy Easter! Such a fun day celebrating the Resurrection!

  • Miss Lilah Chapel danced beautifully in her very first dance recital! I enjoyed every second and might have shed a few tears! She stepped out on stage and starting waving at me, pointing telling everyone I was her mommy and saying hi! The music came on and I was watching this beautiful girl I had prayed and dreamt about twirl around. I was instantly overcome with emotion and gratitude! God surely is so good! . . . #lakewoodranch #woodlandfineartsacademy #dancerecital #ballerina #ballerinasofinstagram #sweetgirl #danceforjesus #dancingforjesus
