I was looking at these photos that ran in FDLuxe almost two years ago.  My house was all white.       Now–it's grey and shades of beige…         Kind of yucky pictures taken by me. The girls and I came very close to moving this past year.  We really wanted a [...]

I hope everyone is having a great Christmas–it snowed like I have never seen before in Texas!  Completely beautiful!!  I think this is the first white Christmas ever for Jane and Carol…     Jane in a thrifted leopard coat her grandparents found for her at the thrift store.  Me, trying to get packages in!

I really love my [...]
