Happiness is being at home…this is mine!
Living room decor in neutrals and duck egg blue

“There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort” – Jane Austen. Isn’t this just so true? I love being at home and spending time in my space and really do believe that happiness is being at home! (Guilty as charged – homebody through and through here! wink*wink )

So today I am sharing photos of my home – the living room, dining room, kitchen, kids bedrooms, master bedroom, bathroom and family room. (I will give more detail and images of each individual room in future blog posts – otherwise it will just make this post far too long!)

Side table in living room with decorative tray

We bought our home almost six years ago, after renting it for two years. The advantage to renting before buying is that you really get to know what the space is like to live in. With living in our home I have really grown to love it!
