Deck the Halls

Welcome to Christmas at the Storys!! 

I took these pictures from my phone, so the quality is not the best, but thanks for stopping by and Merry Christmas. :) 

Stoop, There It Is

Ha, like that? ;)  A few days ago, our little stoop looked like this:

It was fine, but the light fixture and the door mat were both "leftovers" from the previous homeowners, so we figured it was time for an update.  

So, I hired my favorite handy man, who effortlessly uninstalled the ugly old light fixture and installed the new one, which my parents found and bought for us at Lowe's. :)  We added a new $10 doormat from Walmart and our little upgrade was complete. 

I like how the new fixture is more modern (we installed the same one on our back porch, too) and how the new mat actually spells out "Welcome."

Oh, and our cute door knocker was a Christmas gift from my Annie. 

Here's the side-by-side comparison:

Happy Thursday! 

Hello Spring

One of my very favorite things about this season is the fact that the weather is warming up and there are fresh flowers everywhere.  My mom and I planted some last weekend and cut some from our azalea bush to bring inside. ;) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, and that's our new chair from this fabulous new store in Waynesboro called Mary Lou's Redos.  If you live in the area, definitely check it out. :)
