It isn't our official start of summer, but who would pass up a weekend getaway with friends?! It was our second annual Memorial Day trip to Ocean Isle, NC with a group of Charlotte friends.

Fireplace (Re)-Finished
7:44 AM
Anyone want to guess which one we chose??? Drum roll............. This one!!!
We decided to go with white. It's clean, simple, and since we're not sure what paint color the living room/dining room will eventually be, we figured it was a safe bet.
