about me.

Hi, I'm Emily!  I married my husband, Justin, in 2004 (I can't believe it's been that long!).  Fun fact:  we actually started dating when we were sophomores in high school.  We live in Texas and bought our first house in 2007 and have been working to improve it since.


I am an attorney by day, so the blog (and the home projects) are a nice creative outlet for me.  I really love what I do for a living, but if I wasn't an attorney, I would probably be an interior designer.  Reading other blogs and posting on my own is a great way for me to feel like I'm experiencing a little bit of both worlds.

We have the cutest dogs, Riley and Zoey.  They are both Welsh Terriers.  They are so fun and are definitely a part of our family.  They generally don't stand still enough for us to capture a picture of them together, but they like to share a bath mat almost every morning while we get ready. 


And for fun, here's a random little list of things that I like: lists, lip balm, J. Crew, Nordstrom, pearls, Target tank tops, sunroofs, red wine, Treebeards, Joel McHale, Tosh.0, office supplies, etsy, Dunkin Donuts coffee, Mexican food, Real Simple magazine, flats, and blogs (of course!). 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
