I have received a few requests about the bamboo chairs on our porch. Here is what they looked like when I received them. E actually thought that I chose this fabric. Obviously, we need to have a lesson on 70’s decor.
Here they are now in Trina Turk’s Trellis fabric.
I bought them here. They arrived and needed some serious TLC (the legs would actually fall off when you sat in them.) Now they are sturdy, strong and GORGEOUS!
For those of you that have been following #theneverendingporchproject on Instagram, this post is a long time coming. Almost a year ago, I started working with Jeff at Great Falls Landscapes on the concept.
We worked for weeks on the plan.. And finally came up with perfection.
There were a lot of changes along the way. And while it took what seems like forever to build, I couldn’t be happier with the end results. It’s funny, before finding GFL, I had initially hired someone else, and ultimately fired him two weeks in due to his lack of creativity. So glad that I found them! Jeff and Lance were amazing to work with and really “went” with my crazy ideas..
(This was right before E’s Party.. pics to come on that later..)
After a great week in Savannah, we came home to a finished porch and worked our asses off to pull (most) of it together in 4 hours… In just enough time to have dinner out there! 
My view from the sofa.
Each of the Pip Squeaks has claimed their own window seat. 
Which have plenty of room for pillow storage.
Remember these chairs I scored on Etsy? Well, they are the perfect size. They are not in the best shape (besides the fabric a la 1977) so I am hoping that they can be salvaged…
Reality hit like a ton of bricks yesterday morning. We spent a glorious week at the beach… I never wanted to come back. Those of you who follow me on Instagram saw the play by play.
Sardines.
Love her more than peanut butter.
Surfin’ Lou-S-A.
Does this kid not get the best natural beach waves? #jealous.
Lots of this.
And this.
And a little more of this.
To celebrate with my ladies of liberty.
We got home on Saturday night and had our first inaugural marshmallow roast in the firepit. S’mores and all. It was heavenly. The backyard is 98% finished! Pics soon.

Our backyard is almost complete. Now it’s time to zhush it up!
We had a such a great Father’s Day weekend.
Took the pip squeaks on their first horseback riding adventure.
They loved it!
Then we kidnapped Daddy and surprised him with a trip to Lowe’s to pick out a new grill for our backyard.
Speaking of the backyard. Things are finally moving again. We are so close to being done I can taste it!
We finally got the new siding and new windows put in.
Along with the fireplace and window seats with lots of storage for pillows!
We just need to finish the patio and fire pit, then it’s on to landscaping and finally paint!
Fingers crossed that we’ll get to enjoy it before Fall!
