back to the beach

here is quinn's first taste of beach life, back when he was just one month old!

i can't wait to add walks on the beach with him to my list of favorite things to do each day.

i feel very blessed.

again i dream about my beach home...

just after quinn has drifted off to sleep i often click through images of beach homes, coastal cottages, and fabulous decorating ideas.  these are a few of my favorite images tonight...courtesy of coastalliving.com

beachy style for the home

our house is still on the market and i have faith that it will sell when it is good and ready and that the perfect couple will see it, love it, and buy it.  

in the meantime i can daydream about what my house down the shore will look like, especially if i had a million dollars.  i never go for the theme-y houses but i do like the idea of homes that are styled to fit the location.  airy, light, full of natural materials that are local and beautiful.
