As I mentioned on Friday Mr. Décor and I spent all last week house hunting in the Fort Worth area. On average we saw between 10 and 15 houses a day. My mind was on house overload I tell you. (I guess I have a fear that I might miss something good. :) Some houses were an immediate “NO” for me. Some houses were an immediate “NO” for the Mister. Thankfully, we have narrowed it down to three houses and I’ll be sharing all three with you very soon. Of course while looking for a new home we ... View the Post
Exposed Brick in Kitchens, Yea or Nay?
As you read this I am on a plane headed back to Arizona. I’ve been in Texas the entire week on a house hunting trip. There is one home that is a definitely a front runner on our short list. In the kitchen the wall where the range is located is real brick. I’ve never worked with brick as a featured design element in a kitchen before. This is an image of the actual kitchen in the house we are seriously considering. (Please also notice the wood floors and awesome molding and baseboards. :) ... View the Post
Happy Happy!
Today as I write this post I am feeling so…contented. I had to smile as I wrote those words because life is certainly a bit topsy turvy at the moment given that I will be moving to a new state in just a few weeks, our current home has not been sold and our future home has yet to be found.

Life and how we choose to see it really can be just mind over ... View the Post
When Laughter Fades…
I think a large portion of the population reeled in shock when hearing about Robin Williams this week. I myself can’t really remember my life before Robin Williams. I think I was around the age of 9 when I first saw him on “Happy Days” and then like most of the country I never missed an episode of “Mork and Mindy”. In 5th grade my best friend Tracy received the EXACT rainbow suspenders (complete with pins) for Christmas. Man, was I jealous. He just kept getting better….”Good Morning ... View the Post
My Favorite Experience in Provence: Carrières de Lumières
When my cousin and I began planning our trip to Provence Mr. Décor insisted on just one thing~ that we go see an art show. You see in the 80’s Mr. Décor was stationed in Provence for a few months. While there he said he saw the most amazing interactive art show that he had ever experienced. My Favorite Experience in Provence: Carrières de Lumières. I told my cousin and she was hesitant. She had already been to the town of Baux-de-Provence and was not eager to fight the crowds and drive the ... View the Post
Can You Keep A Secret???
Today I am throwing a Party For Miss Marty of A Stroll Thru Life!!! She is celebrating a HUGE milestone birthday. (But I’ll let her tell you how young she is. :) She thinks I am just taking her to lunch. But a few of her favorite people are gathering together to celebrate her! I first met Marty five years ago at a Bloggers Tea. I just instantly liked her (and Maija too!:) Over the years we have celebrated many happy and Royal occasions together. And sometimes we just get together ... View the Post
