I decided to take some new pictures of my house today to share on the blog. Both my front family room and my guest room face the street and get an abundance of light pouring in during the morning hours. I love the look of the dark wood floors in the guest room when they are lit up by sunlight... so I started snapping a few pictures...
Well my kitty, Mason, decided that I must be shooting pictures of him, so he began to really ham it up.
With every click of my camera, he would adjust his pose ever so slightly and hold perfectly still until he heard the next click.... it was as if he were a professional model or something.... I started talking in a sweet little voice to him telling him how handsome he was, and he kept on and on... until I started laughing at him... and then he stopped. (I think he was insulted).
This one was my favorite. :)
I then took this picture of my front room... it's actually my attempt at recreating a picture that Woman's Day took of my home for their article that they didn't end up using in the magazine. I loved the color and perspective of the image so I tried my best to duplicate the look on my own.
I was pleased with how it turned out.....
Anyway, I hope you all are having a great weekend!









Oh Sara, your home is beautiful!

Sara, your home is just exquisitely beautiful, so calm and peaceful and while I love color so much, your house makes me want a monochromatic look every time I see it. Mason is adorable!

I love your blog/boutique and often peruse your posts (but haven't stopped by in a while due to a crazy scedule). I just noticed your post about fertility issues. Please check with your physician or holistic practioner about vitex/chasteberry supplements. I lived overseas for several years and know this herbal supplement is a well researched remedy for infertility in both Germany and Switzerland. My best wishes are with you!

Oh my goodness Sara, that 2nd photo of your kitty is hilarious! Looks like he's posing for some kind of a centerfold for a naughty kitty magazine! lol
Your photos are inspiring as always. :)

There's nothing like a big ole' Tabby to make a house a home. Mason is so handsome! The beach pictures are beautiful and sure do remind me of Orange County. Where did you take them?

That last photo of your front room is so divine! I am such a sucker for anything with a number on it...and all of that chippiness! Heavenly.
