Cozy.

I like this. Instead of sitting by the fireplace, you can sit in the fireplace.

Antlers.

I have a very small collection of antlers started. Right now they are spread throughout the house, but this makes me want to group them all together again.

Christmas, I'm done with you!

Just took our tree down and can't really say I was sad to see it go. Since "they" decided to start Christmas before Thanksgiving again this year by January 1st I was officially over it.

New Stairs.

So, I had a chance to see the (almost) finished staircase this past weekend and I LOVED it! Thank God. This whole renovation business is so nerve-wracking. It just feels like months of paper-clipping money to balloons and letting them go.

Glad that I didn't see this staircase until just now. It's not as if anything like this would be possible, but I'm sure I would have tried.

Neglect.

Hello Blog,

Please forgive me for neglecting you for the past few weeks. I know I have been absent and distracted, but it's not from a lack of interest in you, I swear. It's not like I didn't think about you often. I hope to be able to give you more attention in the New Year, as you deserve.

Yours Truly.

I want an owl.

I have always been mesmerized by owls...something about those eyes...

...Or maybe it's the obsession with Twin Peaks that I have carried with me for the past nineteen years.

In any case, this girl FOUND an injured one on the side of the road and had the pleasure of sharing a ride with it.

Snow!

First day on the mountain!!!!

It was really decent for so early in the season. The pup loved it too. Now I have snow on the brain...

Rustic/Modern.

Great balance between old and new in this kitchen.

Stairs.

Hopefully the next time we see the cabin we will have a brand new staircase that looks a little something like this...

...So rad. Just gotta tackle the white IKEA country kitchen and beige shag carpeting some day.

It's Coming.

The first big storm of the year is pummeling Tahoe right now. Can't wait to play in the snowy mountains...
