Moving in…

So… we are new to “blogging town”…

 

I’m Lindsay, and this is my Hubbie, Kevin:


We’re the Milner’s, but around our home, we’re the Mouves.

We have so many dreams and goals.

(Timing is everything)

We are Christians and our lives are dedicated to following Jesus. Family is really important to us. We love our first place and are always in the process of making it perfect! The Mr. pretty much lets me design and decorate until my heart’s content!

I work from our home as a designer. When I am not working I am cleaning, making our abode even that much cuter, or hanging out with family. Our style could best be described as “modern beach”.

Kevin is a Realtor. When he’s not rocking the real estate market in town, he’s usually working on our rentals, or helping me work on this fabulous little site of ours. I affectionately call him Kevie (or Mouve). We have been married since July 2009, and are still very much “newlyweds”!

I guess you could say we are perfect for each other! We both love homes and all things design!

******************************************************************
 
This is our dog, Bentley (A.K.A Boo Mouve):

 
He was a package deal when we got married! He truly is the best dog in the world. He loves Kevin as much as I do. Bentley enjoys playing with his toys, running after his tennis balls and licking anything in his path! He also enjoys working with us all day in our office (If only he could make money too)!

******************************************************************
We are getting a kitten soon…

(If Kevin can find one like this)


*********************************************************************

So why did we start this blog?

(You know you were wondering)…
Because designing is my passion and I love helping others reach their design dreams! There is truly excitement when you fulfill someone else needs, inspire new & creative ideas and design fabulous interiors for wonderful people (like you)!

 
We dream to inspire, encourage and design in hopes for others to embrace a new story for their interior!

We want to know more about you! What things inspire you? What design questions do you have? Do tell.

    Welcome Lindsay, you’ll be just fine with your exquisite taste and helpful hubby. Just take it one day at a time, and pretty soon you’ll have an incredible portfolio ! Cheers ! PS And I love my simple streamlined blue builiding, yep, that’s the one I’d move into, if I was in the market for a skyscraper. LOL. 🙂
