Preppy Empty Nester

I'm Katie. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my middle-aged years while entangled in the never-ending process of renovating an antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.

Hello, I'm Katie

I'm Katie. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my midlife years one page at a time. We sold our antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts in October 2020. We relocated to Dallas and have been spending our time searching for our Forever Home. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material, however, is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, my favorite son-in-law, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful home! Love the double duty dining room as well. Great functional space. One of #2s roommates is from San Antonio.
ReplyDeleteLove the neutrals with touches of blue - so cool looking in the Texas heat. San Antonio would be so lovely for retirement!
ReplyDeleteLovely home....thanks for sharing. I can only imagine the kind of trouble you & sista got into this weekend ; )! xoxox, Dawn
ReplyDeleteLove the colour palette. It can be so useful to have an outside eye. I get very enthusiastic about lots of ideas but sometimes it helps to have another view about how it goes together. San Antonio s climate sounds lovely but would I miss the seasons.... Not sure
ReplyDeleteTruly beautiful and so inviting.
