love my parents :)








i am heading to beaufort today to go and hang out w/ my parents, who were so sweet and took tay for the weekend so warren and i could have a little "staycation". we had so much fun, i recommend that to any mom out there- you are really doing both you and your parents a favor...giving yourself some time to enjoy just being a couple again and the rentals get to have alone time w/ their grandchild...it's a win/win situation!!
okay back to the reason i am posting these pics: my parents have two large bedrooms upstairs in their house....we have talked about how cute it would be to do built-in beds on either side of one of the rooms, so this post is really for us to look at when i get to town (and if anyone else out there is contemplating the same idea)! happy monday....

I am currently at the end of a two year build and we put in bunkbeds for my two little boys and many of the photos you have were inspiration for me as well! I will be sure to let you know when I post photos because your blog has been a true inspiration for my dream house.

Thanks doll,

Hope you had fun. I'll be in your neck of the woods in 10 days including Charleston, Beaufort.
I love the wall to wall bunks. I think they'd be fun for any age sleepover.

LOVE all of these images... going into my one day file.

Nina said...

I have a secret obsession with built-in beds! Squealed with excitement when I saw your post in my Reader this morning. I posted about your site & your post - scheduled for 2 CST. LOVE your story and advise on the staycation and time with the rentals... and I don't even have kids yet (officially deposited in my memory bank)! xx Nina

People usually dread the idea of bunk beds, these are luxe & inviting!

Love, love, love the idea of built-ins! Makes me want to be a child again, or at least pretend and have a glorious nap.
