purple....when i was young i always reached for the same crayon....purple. it's funny how little girls are all geared towards pink and purple. seeing these rooms, makes me want to add that color back into my life...but maybe in a more grown up way like as an accent paired w/ gray.

Chinoiserie....my heart tends to flutter when i look at pictures of amazing chinoiserie wallpaper....it's so classic and timeless. i think one of my favorite pics is the one of the nursery- how brilliant is that and so unexpected (i'm sure she won't be a diva). i think that is why my heart skipped a beat when i found this....and if there is any left, i'm totally using her ;)

that dog....i feel like i can relate to the look on that dog's face.....like when i go to my closet to put on my running shoes or when i open my bread box to make a sandwich and only have hot dog buns.....how genius is that powder room??!! love how they incorporated the window and put the mirror on the side wall.

running.last week i decided that i was going to dust off my tennis shoes and start running again. it's been over a yr and a lot has happened in that yr including bed rest and baby #2. i'm not going to lie and say it was a piece of cake. i was actually kind of scared. but i did it w/ baby #2 in tow (i think i prefer running w/ a stroller). and now i am on day 7 of running and i love it. okay, some days i would like to just stay in bed and drink my coffee...and maybe eat a donut w/ chocolate frosting (or two)...but i've got jeans i am trying to fit back into!

it feels like fall...




i LOVE wagoneers.  when we moved to beaufort, there was one for sale and i thought it was a sign...i begged warren for it and made him go look at it. i thought it would be so cute to putt around town in.  can't you see fabric bolts sticking out of the back?!  he said it wasn't practical (men)...i told him to think how cute our christmas card would be- a christmas tree on top and barron's head sticking out of the back,  the darby clan propped up against it all decked out in red....cute right?!  anyway, my master plan didn't work and the car sold.  i still love it and maybe one day, i'll own one :)  can you believe it's october!!  i saw this recipe last week and I am dying to try it...might just have to whip this up this weekend!!  it seems very fitting for fall and october.  i hope y'all have a wonderful weekend!!
