Loving My...

PEONIES!!!!!!

Seriously...

there is nothing that makes me happier

than my peonies in full bloom in my backyard...

What SUCKS is that they bloom for, literally, 2 weeks and then...

BOOM.

dead.

So, I have to pick them to be able to enjoy them!

My wonderful hubby bought me two bushes for my birthday when we first moved into our home

6 years ago...

The hot pink POP in my kitchen and dining room amongst the black and white is just stunning...

EVERY time I walk into the kitchen, I actually stop and say "DAMN THOSE ARE BEAUTIFUL"...

I am not joking...

EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.

They last a couple days...the ants crawl out of them...and all over our house...

my son gets freaked out...and my husband complains because he just spent the week prior to this getting all the ants OUT of our house...

and then I bring them back in...

I can't help it...

I am IN LOVE.

He understands...

Sunny...

I just can't get enough of long...flowy skirts and dresses for the upcoming season!

Pinks...yellows...corals...white...

*loving*

So, I have a sick little boy home today...

so I will be a little behind this week catching up with all favorite bloggers~

Have a great and healthy week my friends!

Fall is creeping in...

something about this room ...

the glam of the dress...the coziness of the bed...the warmth of the fire...the sensual reflection of the chandelier and the painting...the starkness of the bare, cream walls...

I just love it.

my dream kitchen...

the contrast between the black and white...masculine and feminine...

& I love the table at the center of the room...I could just imagine my family hanging out there while I cook up something fabulous...!

love this outfit...

perfect for a crisp, sunny fall day...

Labor Day weekend is right around the corner & I cannot WAIT for Fall!

Goodbye bare legs...hello tights and socks!!!!!

Happy Labor Day everyone!!!
