A Lot of Moving

Stand Out Little Flower
I love this little flower - it take courage to be different and stand out proudly in the crowd.  

If everything goes as planned (fingers crossed) I'll be moving furniture into my little vacation house this weekend.  My awesome family all pitched in last weekend to move my sister and her family out of my Salt Lake house into their new one and then to move my furniture back into my house and now I'm asking them to turn around and help me move furniture into the new place - that is a lot of heavy lifting to do in just over a weeks time. I think it is safe to say, I have a wonderful family.

If I can still lift my arms after the big moves, I'll share some photos of my little pad.  It's going to be full of my late grandparent's furniture - I'm hoping over time I can make it look 'granny-chic' and not just 'land of cast-off furniture.'

I hope you have an amazing weekend!

Good luck with the moving. Families can be the best. Years ago we bought my husband's brother's home... family helped him move out in the a.m.; painted many walls in the home for us and then went to our old house and moved us in... sounds confusing but the family worked 12 hours.

Best of luck with the move! I'll be anxious to see some photos. We've never moved without the wonderful help of family and friends.

You do have an awesome family! I strongly dislike moving! But I can't wait to see the photos of your new house. Granny-chic is totally hot.

What a great photo! I love how the lavender seems to be leaning towards the poppy, like the poppy is the one to 'follow' ;)

Best of luck with all the furniture moving! That is, indeed, a wonderful family to be helping with all of that. Can't wait to see pix of your 'granny chic' place!

Jamie, I hope your moving went well!!! Can't wait to see your new home away from home! I love old furniture, especially when it holds family memories:)
The bold orange/red flower is perfect - we should all take a page from her book!
