Daydreaming of the Kelly Wearstler!


Earlier this year, remember when I visited my sister Shelly in California?  Well she surprised me one night with a stay at the OH SO OH SO PRETTY Viceroy, the Kelly Wearstler Hotel in Santa Monica! Pinch me - it was awesome!  So girly, so fun, just a girls dream!  The entire weekend she had such special plans for us, and we just had such a lovely time together, and ever since when I daydream, it's of California.  Shelly introduced me to "Kelly" years ago and ever since I am such a fan of her decor.  Josh and I also stayed at her Miami hotel a few years ago.  The story is that her husband does the design part of the hotel layout and such, and she does the decor.

What. a. TREAT. 

Dont we girls all love to decorate?  Well while I don't have Kelly Wearstler's budget, ha!  I did notice that our master looks a wee bit like this ....white bedding, sconces, and two matching side tables. And honestly my entire home is very neutral. I have such a hard time finding those perfect touches of color that just seem to make a room ,but that i dont tire of.   So...I was thinking my bedding looked so plain, but look at this?  She kept the bedding simple and those green chairs just added the perfect touch of color and fun.  So, since I can't get those stinking cute green chairs, I am going to add perhaps a "kelly" green pillow, and paint my side tables.  We do not have a mirror over our bed, but that may just be in the budget since mirrors are easy to find at a reasonable price if you are willing to hunt.  If I remember correctly she had incorporated grey into the room with the patterned wall paper, so perhaps I can find some way to do that without being too drab.  SHe had lots of natural light with the ocean view.  

Thank you to Shelly & Kelly, my design team!!!

I love you both!! Okay maybe Shelly a bit more than Kelly ;) ....but honestly, they are in the same league.
TALENT TALENT TALENT!  But Shelly, and all of my siblings will NEVER toot their own horns, because that's the people we are,  so I have to do it for her!
:)


Happy THURSDAY/almost FRIDAY!!!!!!!

2 days before the twins arrived....
I am so thankful my Dad took this picture....to remind me what it felt like to hold two precious lives inside of me...

Be encouraged!

Lord fill my heart with Yours
that I may know Your will,
those things that I should act upon
and when you want me still.

Guard my mind from useless thoughts
that clutter, harm, confuse.
Create in me a closeness
that Your course I'll always choose.

Clear my hearing, teach me
to identify the lies,
that I may only hear the truth
of who I am in Christ.

Lord, satisfy and fill me
with Your Spirit from above,
that I may truly know the freedom
of Unfailing Love.

Then planted deeply in that love,
my heart in full surrender,
Lift the veil for all to see,
my life display Your splendor.


Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
