Nesting on a Wednesday Afternoon


A rainy afternoon.  Dreary and windy.  A good day for nesting.




I spent the morning and part of the afternoon creating a gallery wall in 
the hallway leading to Mom's bedroom.  We are not quite finished yet,
but getting close now.  I would love to take some pics to show you
but it's so dark and cloudy.  Not a good picture taking day.



With Thanksgiving on it's way, I am consumed with thoughts of the dining room and
recipes.  It's our first Thanksgiving in our new house and I want to make it as
special as I can.  Mom and I have been planning all kinds of changes for this room
but honestly, I think it would be more realistic for us to consider these changes
after the holidays.




Isn't this a pretty dish?  I  just love looking at it.



I thought I would take a pic of the kitchen before next week.  It won't be
so neat and tidy then ;-)



Remember when I was talking about a cream and neutral color palate for
my kitchen?   What was I thinking???  Y'all know that can't happen.
After all ~ reds just keep on creeping in!


I am kind of partied out right now so no links today.  Just lots of love
and of course ~

Big Texas Hugs,
from Susan and Bentley

  8. Susan, you can have your cream and red too. Just a suggestion ~ why not paint your walls cream and add pops of red that you love so much. Love that little dish, it would be a lovely addition to a Thanksgiving dinner ~ enjoy your nesting ;-)
